Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national
standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is
normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a
subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on
that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with
ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance
are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed
for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in
accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the
subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in
the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see
www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does
not constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the
following URL: www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 176, Quality management and
quality assurance, Subcommittee 2, Quality systems.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 9004:2009), which has been
technically revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— alignment with the concepts and terminology of ISO 9000:2015 and ISO 9001:2015;
— focus on the concept of “quality of an organization”;
— focus of the concept of “identity of an organization”.

Introduction
This document provides guidance for organizations to achieve sustained success in a complex,
demanding and ever-changing environment, with reference to the quality management principles
described in ISO 9000:2015. Where they are applied collectively, quality management principles
can provide a unifying basis for an organization’s values and strategies.
While ISO 9001:2015 focuses on providing confidence in an organization’s products and services,
this document focuses on providing confidence in the organization’s ability to achieve sustained
success.
Top management’s focus on the organization’s ability to meet the needs and expectations of
customers and other relevant interested parties provides confidence in achieving sustained
success. This document addresses the systematic improvement of the organization’s overall
performance. It includes the planning, implementation, analysis, evaluation and improvement of
an effective and efficient management system.
Factors affecting an organization’s success continually emerge, evolve, increase or diminish over
the years, and adapting to these changes is important for sustained success. Examples include
social responsibility, environmental andcultural factors, in addition to those that might have been
previously considered, such as efficiency, quality and agility; taken together, these factors are part
of the organization’s context.
The ability to achieve sustained success is enhanced by managers at all levels learning about and
understanding the organization’s evolving context. Improvement and innovation also support
sustained success.
This document promotes self-assessment and provides a self-assessment tool for reviewing the
extent to which the organization has adopted the concepts in this document (see Annex A).
A representation of the structure of this document, incorporating the elements essential to
achieve sustained success of an organization as covered in this document, is presented in
Figure 1.

  • 9. SS ISO 9004 : 2018 8 COPYRIGHT Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives). Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 176, Quality management and quality assurance, Subcommittee 2, Quality systems. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 9004:2009), which has been technically revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows: — alignment with the concepts and terminology of ISO 9000:2015 and ISO 9001:2015; — focus on the concept of “quality of an organization”; — focus of the concept of “identity of an organization”.
  • 10. SS ISO 9004 : 2018 9 COPYRIGHT Introduction This document provides guidance for organizations to achieve sustained success in a complex, demanding and ever-changing environment, with reference to the quality management principles described in ISO 9000:2015. Where they are applied collectively, quality management principles can provide a unifying basis for an organization’s values and strategies. While ISO 9001:2015 focuses on providing confidence in an organization’s products and services, this document focuses on providing confidence in the organization’s ability to achieve sustained success. Top management’s focus on the organization’s ability to meet the needs and expectations of customers and other relevant interested parties provides confidence in achieving sustained success. This document addresses the systematic improvement of the organization’s overall performance. It includes the planning, implementation, analysis, evaluation and improvement of an effective and efficient management system. Factors affecting an organization’s success continually emerge, evolve, increase or diminish over the years, and adapting to these changes is important for sustained success. Examples include social responsibility, environmental andcultural factors, in addition to those that might have been previously considered, such as efficiency, quality and agility; taken together, these factors are part of the organization’s context. The ability to achieve sustained success is enhanced by managers at all levels learning about and understanding the organization’s evolving context. Improvement and innovation also support sustained success. This document promotes self-assessment and provides a self-assessment tool for reviewing the extent to which the organization has adopted the concepts in this document (see Annex A). A representation of the structure of this document, incorporating the elements essential to achieve sustained success of an organization as covered in this document, is presented in Figure 1.
