ISO 9001: 2000 Quality Management System Design

19.6 Build a Useful Table of Contents (TOC)

Be sure to indicate the relationship between the TOC sections and the specific clauses of the Standard at the highest level of the Standard as possible.

For example, if Section 4 of the manual is termed Quality Management System and deals with all the SHALLS of the Standard's 4.0 requirements, you need only reference Section 4 to the Standard's 4.0 (see Table 19.1).

However, if the format is such that quality policy is in Section 2 of the manual, it will be necessary to reference that specific paragraph to Par. 5.3 of the Standard (see Table 19.2).
