The eight management principles include:
Principle 1 – Customer-Focused Organization
Principle 2 – Leadership
Principle 3 – Involvement of People
Principle 4 – Process Approach
Principle 5 – System Approach to Management
Principle 6 – Continual Improvement
Principle 7 – Factual approach to decision making
Principle 8 – Mutually beneficial supplier relationships
By implementing a sound, internationally recognized management standard, PE hopes to meet not only current customer requirements but also future customer expectations.
Employees at all levels and functions may be asked to participate in drafting documentation, attend training, and perform internal audits. The video at this link provides more information on ISO.
The project will take approximately nine months. Please direct any ISO-related questions, comments, or concerns to Marquitta Harris (mharris@patricioenterprises.com).
