6. Conclusion
• The only significant change to the Improvement clause
of ISO 9001 will be the removal of the Preventive
Action clause.
• Opportunities for improvements will still need to be
determined and actions taken to meet customer
requirements and enhance customer satisfaction.
• Causes for nonconformities will still need to be
determined.

7. Conclusion
• The determination of the existence of similar
nonconformities, or if they could potentially occur, will
still need to be performed.
• The effectiveness of actions taken will still need to be
reviewed.

Editor's Notes Preventive Action (9001:2008 Clause 8.5.3) has been removed in 9001:2015.
Clause 6.1 (Actions to address risks and opportunities) is being used to replace 8.5.3. This coincides with section 0.5 “Risk-based Thinking” and appendix A.4 “Risk-based approach”.
A.4 states “This International Standard requires the organization to understand its context (see clause 4.1) and determine the risks and opportunities that need to be addressed…. One of the key purposes of a quality management system is to act as a preventive tool.” There should not be any differences for how corrective actions or improvements are made or documented.
