ISO 9001 Use of Quality Tools
Assign topic to the user
Answer:
This is correct, ISO 9001:2015 does not dictate any quality tools to be used in the QMS. ISO 9001:2015 calls for the QMS to continually improve, and the article was pointing out some ways that quality tools can be used to support this continual improvement. They are not mandated, however, like other tools such as Six Sigma and Lean the quality tools can be used to support the QMS.
