  • Facilitating Project Management Through Effective Quality Management: the Need for Implementing ISO 9000 in Construction
    Built-Environment-Sri Lanka -Vol. 03, Issue 02:2003 Facilitating project management through effective quality management: the need for implementing ISO 9000 in construction N.D. Gunawardena Abstract This paper describes the relationship between project management and quality management. It identifies the similarity between the recognised project quality management processes and the ISO 9001 quality management system; then it illustrates how ISO 9001 quality requirements could be applied to construction project management. The paper also presents the results of a survey carried out to identify quality management practices adopted by local construction companies, using ISO 9001 standard as a yardstick. According to the survey, the companies had some shortcomings with respect to quality management during the construction stage. The results indicate that the lack of proper quality management could, in turn, affect the project management adversely; this point is supported by the Project Management Process Maturity Model, which is a quality improvement model that uses five levels to determine the relative maturity of any organisation and its ability to achieve cost and schedule objectives of a project. Finally, the paper suggests that the quality managements systems based on ISO 9000 could be very effective in facilitating the project management efforts in the construction industry. Introduction A project can be defined as a complex, non-routine, parties must have mutual understanding as to what one-time effort limited by time, budget, resources and services are to be provided by the contractor in return performance specifications (Gray and Larson, 2000). for the agreed consideration; this usually is ensured by Project Management is the application of knowledge, a set of documents such as drawings and specifications skills, tools and techniques to project activities in order that define the scope and the performance aspects of to meet or exceed stakeholder need and expectations the product.

  • Influence of ISO 9001 Certification on Project Management Performance in Software Industry
    European Online Journal of Natural and Social Sciences 2018; www.european-science.com Vol. 7, No.3(s) Special Issue on Contemporary Research in Social Sciences ISSN 1805-3602 Influence of ISO 9001 certification on project management performance in software industry Anum Safder*, Samina Yousaf Comsats Institute of Information Technology, Lahore, Pakistan *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract For the success of software projects, the Project Management is considered as an important tool. Organizations can understand Project Management Performance in an improved way if they exercise Quality Management System. This empirical study investigates the impact of ISO 9001 certification on Project Management Performance (six constructs of PMP) and how PM Performance varies for ISO- certified software houses and Non-certifies software houses. Data was collected from project managers of both ISO-certified and Non-certificated software organizations registered under P@SHA and PSEB of Pakistan. 192 questionnaires were used for analysis. Independent Sample t- test was used for conducting the analysis and results concluded that software houses with ISO- certification show a better PM Performance than with no certification. Keywords: Project Management, ISO 9001 certification, software industry. Introduction Currently, project management is being extensively used in business. Quality management and project management are two interlinked terms and can be described in similar manner. The situation in which there is a strong influence of repetitious processes, the quality management is most successful field. In reference to the project management process, how to conduct a project is a scenario where there is a very vivid effect of QM which is slightly ignored or a limited focus is paid on its effect by academic professional.

  • ISO 9000: Is It Worth It? ISO 9000: an Ineffective Quality System Chris Heffner, Steven C
    ISO 9000: Is It Worth It? ISO 9000: An Ineffective Quality System Chris Heffner, Steven C. "Swede" Larson, Barney "Tim" Lowder and Patti Stites ISO 9000 was created as a family of models in 1987, based on a wartime British manufacturing standard, as the answer to perceived manufacturing problems with quality and safety. The program was originally published in 1987 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), which is a specialized international agency that focuses on the standardization of organizational processes. The organization is composed of standards from organizations representing 90 countries. ISO 9000 was quickly adopted as the premier standard to ensure uniform manufacturing and auditing processes. The program went through a major revision in 2000 and now includes ISO 9000:2000 (definitions), ISO 9001:2000 (requirements) and ISO 9004:2000 (continuous improvement). But even after these major revisions, the program is often criticized as ineffective for a wide variety of reasons. We agree. Overemphasis on Inspection First, many researchers believe ISO 9000 is ineffective because it is based on conservatism, overemphasizes inspections and audits, and fails to encourage real improvement. Barnes (2000), for example, said that the current commercial certification process results in a "pursuit of quality certificates, as opposed to a pursuit of quality." Johannsen (1995) also asserted that the ISO concept does not incorporate the advances of Total Quality Management because it is "narrow, static and emphasize[s] conformance to specifications" (p. 234). After overseeing more than 50 ISO registrations, Bill Robinson (cited in Clifford, 2005), argued that ISO is not one of the better systems that can be used for process improvement.

The definition of risk as stated in the standard is “the effect of uncertainty’ which could be positive or negative. Thus, ISO 9001 certified organization requires to demonstrate objective evidence of the implementation of risk based thinking such risk analysis and risk mitigation plan not only to satisfy the need of ISO 9001:2015 standard, but also widely accepted that organization requires risk management activities to stay competitive. However, there many initiative, tools and approach for the operational risk management activities have been subjected to little research and are not well understood. This paper reviewed and discussed the available literatures on operational risk management decision support tools. Based on an extensive literature review, the issues relevant to operational risk management support tools are examined, and discussed the several issues to identify the decision support tools to satisfy the intended requirements of the ISO 9001:2015 standard.
