Process mapping?

"Is it a requirement of the new standards to map all your key processes? If so , can they be documented text procedures, or do they have to be flow charts? Would a PDCA Chart work either? We are a facilities services company.”

Answer:

ISO 9001:2015 requires that your organization determines all key processes. “Determines” means that it is your organization that defines and establishes what is a key process, considering the scope of your QMS. ISO 9001:2015 do not use the word map, and do not require any particular visual approach to characterize each process. For example, you can use a table, each process in a row, and each item of clause 4.4.1 of ISO 9001:2015 in columns.

The following material will provide you information about the process approach:
