Continual Improvement Auditing - Quality Web Based Training

Continual Improvement Auditing The difference between Continual and continuous Improvement has been the subject of debate. The ISO 9001:2000 requires Continual Improvement but Total Quality Management, Six Sigma require continuous Improvement . In the late 90s, the pros and cons of using continuous or Continual Improvement in the proposed ISO 9001:2000 were discussed (debated). In a US Technical Advisory Group (TAG) to the American National Standards Institute for ISO/TC176 meeting (ISO 9000 Quality management system oversight group): It was agreed to use Continual instead of continuous because the regulatory community (sector) believed that continuous Improvement was unenforceable. They felt that continuous was unenforceable because it meant an organization had to improve minute by minute, whereas, Continual Improvement meant step-wise Improvement or Improvement in segments.
