Episode 15 - S2 - Restarting a Stalled QMS

On this episode of The Quality Hub podcast, Xavier Francis interviews Suzanne Weber-Smatko, focusing on restarting a stagnant Quality Management System (QMS). They discuss signs of a stalled QMS, such as a lack of improvement initiatives and neglect of required activities like internal audits. Suzanne emphasizes the importance of measuring, documenting non-conformities, and involving leadership for QMS effectiveness. They advise against letting certifications lapse, as it necessitates a full audit and increased costs to regain certification. They also suggest seeking assistance from professionals like Core Business Solutions to simplify and maintain QMS efficiently. They wrap up with a reminder to stay engaged with the QMS and ensure leadership commitment for its success.
