The transition is not that easy

My company has ISO 9001:2008 implemented and certified. We have had the certification for 3 years with very good audits the last 2 years. Zero nonconformities. Now I am in charge of making the transition. I have done courses on the new version, but feel stuck, don't know were to start and how.

I am working now on interested parties and trying to get to the context of the organization but need some guidance. Since our audits have been so good, everyone in the company feels that the transition is simple and we don't need much guidance, as a result we have done pretty much nothing. I am afraid that the time is passing and we have not much accomplished.

Answer:

Since you have a good system in your company the transition can go smoothly but it doesn't mean that it wont require effort, especially because you are doing in by yourself. Identification of interested parties is a good way to start defining context of the organization, however it will require other aspects of the context to be defined and this can't be done without engagement of the top management. Defining context of the organization in now one of the most important steps because it will influence the way you identify the risks and opportunities and also other parts of your system so it is crucial to engage all relevant roles in the company to define the context correctly and with sufficient level of details.
