A Consultant is a person who has a proven record of competency to perform a task in minimum possible time by utilizing minimum possible resources with maximum outcome.
The strategic decision by any business to implement a quality management system, or any other kind of ISO management system and achieve ISO Certification is one that will have a profound effect on the organization. The decision to implement an ISO management system is often taken when the company is seeking to expand, or trying to enter new markets so is already under a point of stress. For this purpose, Organizations and their leaders rightly want to take ownership of the process and allocate the task to an existing person who has shown the right level of interest, experience or sits logically in the structure. However, all too often, the implementation of a management system may get bogged down in the detail, or day-to-day pressures take over. The process hangs on and the decision to achieve recognition and certificate becomes a dream.
The root causes of these situations are related to either lack of resources or lack of competency. If the organization does nothing, it’s failed at the first hurdle. The ISO standards stipulate within the clauses concerned with competency, that an organization should ‘take action to acquire competence’, or in relation to resources that the ‘organization determines and provides the resources needed’ to implement the management system.
This is the point where organizations stuck mostly and need some sort of Consultant to come out of the situation. The benefits of using a reputable and experienced Consultant who has good knowledge of the relevant work, standards and industrial sector may play an important role to make this dream of achievement reality by effectively implemented management system and operated by people that understand how to continue to achieve continual improvement.
