ISO 9001:2015 – Environment for the Operation of Processes
Clause 7.1.4 of ISO 9001:2015 requires organisations to determine and manage the environment necessary for the operation of processes. This includes factors such as physical, environmental, and social conditions that may affect the ability to achieve product and service conformity.
