Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 9004-3 was prepared by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 176, Quality management and quality assurance, Sub-Committee
SC 2, Quality systems.
IS0 9004 consists of the following parts, under the general title Quality
management and quality system elements:
- Part 1: Guidelines
- Part 2: Guidelines for services
- Part 3: Guidelines for processed materials
- Part 4: Guidelines for quality improvement
- Part 5: Guidelines for quality plans
- Part 6: Guide to quality assurance for project management
- Part 7: Guidelines for configuration management

Introduction
0.1 General
A primary concern of any company or organization should be the quality
of its products and services.
fer products or services that
In order to be successful, a company should of
a) meet a well-defined need, use or purpose
b) satisfy customers’ expectations;
c) comply with applicable standards and specifications;
d) comply with statutory (and other) requirements of society;
e) are made available - at competitive prices;
are provided at a cost which will yield a profit.
f )
0.2 Organizational goals
In order to meet its objectives, the company should organize itself in such
a way that the technical, administrative and human factors affecting the
quality of its products and services will be under control. All such control
should be oriented towards the reduction, elimination and, most import-
antly, prevention of quality deficiencies.
With processed materials, control of the process itself is of primary con-
cern.
A quality system should be developed and implemented for the purpose
of accomplishing the objectives set out in a company’s quality policies.
Each element (or requirement) in a quality system will vary in importance
from one type of activity to another and from one product or service to
another.
In order to achieve maximum effectiveness and to satisfy customer ex-
pectations, it is essential that the quality system be appropriate to the type
of activity and to the process, product or service being offered.
03 . Meeting company/customer needs
A quality system has two inter-related aspects.
iv

---------------------- Page: 6 ----------------------

SIST ISO 9004-3:1996
IS0 9004=3:1993(E)
a) The company’s needs and interests
For the company, there is a business need to attain and to maintain the
desired quality at an optimum cost; the fulfilment of this quality aspect
is related to the planned and efficient utilization of the technological,
human and material resources available to the company.
b) The customer’s needs and expectations
For the customer, there is a need for confidence in the ability of the
company to deliver the desired quality as well as the consistent main-
tenance of that quality.
Each of the above aspects of a quality system requires objective evidence
in the form of information and data concerning the quality of the system
and the quality of the company’s products.
0.4 Risks, costs and benefits
Risk, cost and benefit considerations have great importance for both
company and customer. These considerations are inherent aspects of
most products and services. The possible effects and ramifications of
these considerations are given as follows.
Risk considerations
a)
For the company: Consideration has to be given to risks related to
deficient products or services which lead to loss of image or reputation,
loss of market, complaints, claims, liability, safety, waste of human and
financial resources.
For the customer: Consideration has to be given to risks such as
those pertaining to the health and safety of people, dissatisfaction with
goods and services, availability, marketing claims and loss of confi-
dence.
Cost considerations
b)
For the company: Consideration has to be given to costs due to
marketing and design deficiencies, including unsatisfactory materials,
rework, repair, replacement, reprocessing, loss of production, warran-
ties and field repair.
For the customer: Consideration has to be given to safety, acquisition
cost, operating, maintenance, downtime and repair costs, and possible
disposal costs.
d Benefit considerations
For the company: Consideration has to be given to increased profit-
ability and market share.
For the customer: Consideration has to be given to reduced costs,
improved fitness for use, increased satisfaction and growth in confi-
dence.
0.5 Conclusions
An effective quality system should be designed to satisfy customer needs
and expectations while serving to protect the company’s interests. A
well-structured quality system is a valuable management resource in the
optimization and control of quality in relation to risk, cost and benefit con-
siderations.

Avant-propos
L’ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une federation
mondiale d’organismes nationaux de normalisation (comites membres de
I’ISO). L’elaboration des Normes internationales est en general confiee aux
comites techniques de I’ISO. Chaque comite membre interesse par une
etude a le droit de faire partie du comite technique tree 8 cet effet. Les
organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non gouvernemen-
tales, en liaison avec I’ISO participent egalement aux travaux. L’ISO colla-
bore etroitement avec la Commission electrotechnique internationale (CEI)
en ce qui concerne la normalisation electrotechnique.
Les projets de Normes internationales adopt& par les comites techniques
sont soumis aux comites membres pour vote. Leur publication comme
Normes internationales requiert I’approbation de 75 % au moins des co-
mites membres votants.

03 . Conformit aux besoins de I’entrepriseldu client
Un systeme de gestion de a qualite presente deux aspects etroitement
.
II& .
Les besoins et inth&s de l’entreprise
a)
Pour I’entreprise, c’est I Ine necessite dans les affaires d’atteindre et
de maintenir la qualite voulue a un co& optimal; la realisation de cet
aspect concernant la qualite est lice a une utilisation planifiee et effi-
cace des ressources technologiques, humaines et materielles dispo-
nibles pour I’entreprise.
Les besoins et attentes du client
W
Pour le client, c’est une necessite d’avoir confiance tant dans I’apti-
tude de I’entreprise a fournir la qualite voulue que dans le maintien
adequat de cette qualite.
Chacun des aspects precedents d’un systeme qualite implique de fournir
une preuve objective sous la forme d’informations et de donnees concer-
nant la qualite du systeme et la qualite des produits de I’entreprise.
0.4 Risques, co&s et benefices
Les considerations relatives aux risques, coots et benefices jouent un role
important 8 la fois pour I’entreprise et pour le client. Ces considerations
sont des aspects propres 8 la plupart des produits et services. Les effets
et aspects decoulant de ces considerations sont donnes comme suit.
Conditions relatives aux risques
a)
Pour I’entreprise: On doit prendre en consideration les risques lies 8
des produits ou services deficients qui entrainent une perte d’image
de marque ou de reputation, une perte de marche, des plaintes, des
reclamations, une responsabilite, une securite, un gaspillage des res-
sources humaines et financieres.
Pour le client: On doit prendre en consideration les risques tels que
ceux qui sont lies a la Sante et 8 la securite des personnes, 8
I’insatisfaction qu’entralnent les produits et services, a la disponibilite,
aux revendications commerciales et a la perte de confiance.
Conditions relatives aux coQts
b)
Pour I’entreprise: On doit prendre en consideration les couts impu-
tables aux deficiences de mercatique et de conception, qui compren-
nent les produits non satisfaisants, les retouches, les reparations, les
remplacements, les reprises en processus, les pertes de production,
les garanties et les reparations en clientele.
Pour le client: On doit prendre en consideration la securite, les touts
d’acquisition, les coats d’exploitation, de maintenance, d’arrets et de
reparation ainsi que les coats eventuels de mise au rebut.
Conditions relatives aux bknhfices
c)
Pour I’entreprise: On doit prendre en consideration I’accroissement
du profit et de la part du marche.
Pour le client: On doit prendre en consideration la reduction des
couts, I’amelioration de I’aptitude a I’usage, I’accroissement de la sa-
tisfaction et de la confiance.
