About This Item
TS EN ISO 8402 is a vocabulary standard for quality management and quality assurance. It defines the core terms used in quality-related standards and aims to establish a common technical language for preparing and applying such standards, as well as for mutual understanding in international communication. Although withdrawn, it remains a useful reference for understanding the historical terminology of quality management.
Why quality terminology matters
Quality management is concerned with the ability of a product, service, or process to fulfill stated needs, while quality assurance focuses on providing confidence in that ability. Vocabulary standards clarify these concepts and help maintain consistent usage across auditing, certification, procurement, and organizational management. In general technical practice, this improves comparability across sectors and languages.
What this standard covers
- Fundamental quality-related concepts and their definitions.
- Common terminology for the preparation and use of quality standards.
- Language intended to support mutual understanding in international communication.
- Reference vocabulary for quality management and quality assurance contexts.
In general technical context, a vocabulary standard does not introduce a new test method or performance requirement. Instead, it sets out the meaning of terms so that later quality management standards can be read and applied with a shared understanding of the language involved.
