TS EN ISO 9001/A1

TS EN ISO 9001/A1 is an amendment to the core ISO 9001 text, adding climate-action-related changes to the requirements for quality management systems. As an amendment, it does not replace the parent standard’s quality management model; instead, it updates the wording and conceptual framing so organisations can address climate-related considerations more explicitly within their quality management system context.

Climate action in the quality management context

ISO 9001 is built around widely used quality management principles such as the process approach, customer satisfaction, leadership, risk-based thinking, and continual improvement. This amendment does not change that overall framework; rather, it reinforces the relevance of considering climate-related issues within management system thinking. In general technical terms, that means recognising how climate factors can affect supply chains, resource use, resilience, stakeholder expectations, and broader organisational context.

What this document type means

• It is an amendment to ISO 9001, not a standalone standard.
• It contains wording changes that support or clarify the parent standard.
• It updates quality management terminology through a climate-action lens.
• Its subject remains management system requirements, with ISO 9001 as the base document.

For organisations using or maintaining a quality management system, this listing serves as a focused update that aligns the existing ISO 9001 structure with climate-related awareness. It is particularly relevant to teams working with process control, objective setting, context analysis, and management system maintenance.
