Overview: It has been seen that some of the organisation in order to save money tend to ignore th ISO Standards. This article mainly focusses upon such situation. The ISO 9000:2000 series of standards on Quality Management is in the home straight with the issue of the Final Draft International Standards (FDIS). The ratified standards are due to be issued in December 2000.. For all businesses, the revision provides a golden opportunity for senior management to take stock, to stand back and seriously review whether they are really adding value to their stakeholders by using ISO 9000 to support their business objectives. Those who are serious about continually improving their performance will critically examine their business practices and use the fundamental principles behind the standard to identify opportunities for improvement. Such issues have only arisen because the principles underpinning the requirement were not clearly expressed. Now these principles have been clearly defined they assist us interpret the requirements with greater consistency than has hitherto been the case.
