What is BS 99001 - Quality management systems in the built environment about?
Quality failings in the built environment sector have raised some fundamental concerns. BS 99001:2022 tackles these by providing additional requirements to those in the generic quality management system standard BS EN ISO 9001:2015.
BS 99001 has been developed using the identical clause structure to BS EN ISO 9001, allowing the new Built Environment sector specific requirements in BS 99001 to be implemented alongside those in the generic QMS standard.
