Many ISO practitioners are often disappointed with the quantity and complexity of the documentation. You can frequently hear:

“We don’t need these documents – we’re doing just fine without them; this would only be overkill. ”

“This standard is all about documentation – we simply need to fill out all the documents, and we’ll automatically get the certificate. ”

“We need to write policies and procedures for each and every process, activity, and control in our company – the more documents, the clearer the rules will be, and it will be easier for us to comply. ”

This book is here to prove these statements wrong. As Kosutic says: “The main point of the implementation of any standard is that the employees perform their activities and processes in a better way, and the documentation is here to help you do that, because otherwise, their processes and activities would become unmanageable. ”
