ISO Clause 9.3 Management Review

 ISO clause 9.3 Management Review

The management review process requires Top Management to periodically review the the organization ISO Management System to ensure its continuing suitability, adequacy, and effectiveness while addressing the possible need for changes to quality, environment, safety and health policy, objectives, targets and other elements of the Management System.

The Management Review Team shall comprise of the General Manager, Managers and key Supervisors. The General Manager is present at the meeting to assess the suitability, adequacy and effectiveness of the Management System.  The various Managers & key supervisors provide inputs such as reports and analysis charts according to the set meeting agenda. The Senior Manager organizes and co-ordinates the management review meeting.

How Often Should We Schedule A Management Review?

ISO 9001/45001/14001 Management Review should be conducted at least once a year and before the scheduled external audit. Some organization may conduct it either six monthly or quarterly. It depends very much on the organization requirement.

I personally opined the Management Review should be conducted twice over six months to be able to monitor the action item effectively.
