Question #: 46
Topic #: 1
An audit team leader arrives at a printing organisation to carry out a Stage 2 audit for a certification body. At a meeting with the Quality Manager, she is told that they have won their biggest contract from a computer manufacturer to print and compile computer documentation packages. They have leased the unit next door for space reasons but have never worked in this sector before. The Quality Manager wants the ISO 9001 certificate to cover the new contract.
During the audit, a team member finds that a number of print jobs have been rejected by several clients over a number of months due to spelling errors in the print run. The Print Manager blames the new employees they had to take on because of a big contract. The auditor raises a nonconformance against clause 10.2.1.b of ISO
9001.
Which one of the evidence statements would support this finding?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer
According to clause 10.2.1.b of ISO 9001:2015, the organization should evaluate the need for action to eliminate the causes of nonconformities, in order to prevent their recurrence. This means that the organization should identify and address the root causes and contributing factors of the nonconformities, and implement appropriate corrective actions that are effective and proportional to the impact of the nonconformities. In this case, the evidence statement that supports the finding of nonconformance is C, because it shows that the organization did not take effective actions to prevent the recurrence of the spelling errors in the print run, which resulted in repeated customer rejections and dissatisfaction. The other options are not directly related to clause 10.2.1.b, although they may indicate other nonconformities or weaknesses in the organization's QMS.
For example, option A may relate to clause 7.2 on competence, option B may relate to clause 8.6 on release of products and services, and option D may relate to clause 7.1 on resources. References: ISO 9001:2015, [ISO
9001 Auditing Practices Group Guidance on Nonconformity and Corrective Action], ISO 9001 Clause 10.
