Management System Review Checklist

A management review is a systematic assessment to ‘measure the effectiveness of the organizations’ management system. ISO standards require management reviews because they ensure that management systems remain focused on the direction of the business and continual improvement.

An inefficient management system leads to a lack of engagement, uncertainty, and lack of clarity throughout the business. The idea behind the review process is to take a regular and systematic step back from the day-to-day running of a business to review the performance of the management system by asking “Are the current processes still suitable, adequate, and effective?”
