Q/EMS Control of Production and Service Procedure Template & Guide (ISO 9001 + ISO 14001)

$249

A complete, worked operational control procedure for organizations holding certification to both ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2026. The two standards do not share a structure here: ISO 9001 8.5.1 enumerates eight controlled conditions, while ISO 14001:2026 8.1 requires operating criteria plus a life cycle perspective reaching design, procurement, external providers and end-of-life. Each standard contains a control the other lacks. This procedure keeps both sets, marks each by scope, and covers process control, validation, change, release, monitoring, procurement, contractors, the life cycle perspective, waste, and emergency preparedness. Every requirement is marked by scope, so you can see what ISO 9001 requires, what ISO 14001:2026 requires, and what both do. Where the two standards diverge, the stricter is taken as the house standard and the choice is recorded rather than assumed. Microsoft Word format, fully editable, with the process interaction map supplied as an editable SVG. Perennia Corp is a fictional organization used throughout as a worked example. Your purchase includes a free update to the ISO 9001:2026 alignment when MSI issues it. 52 pages.

What makes it different

The decisions are already made. Where ISO 9001 and ISO 14001:2026 pull in different directions, the stricter requirement is taken as the house standard and the choice is recorded rather than assumed, with the alternative that was rejected written down beside it.

Worth knowing before you buy. The two standards do not share a structure here. ISO 9001 8.5.1 enumerates eight controlled conditions. ISO 14001:2026 8.1 requires operating criteria plus a life cycle perspective reaching design, procurement, external providers, and information about impacts from transportation, use, end-of-life treatment and disposal. That last one is a real requirement that almost nobody implements, because it asks about the product after it leaves and no operational control procedure has a natural place for it. This one does, next to ISO 9001’s post-delivery activities.

What is inside

Fifteen procedure sections covering which processes need control, establishing criteria, the hierarchy of controls, validation, multi-employer coordination, management of change, release of output, monitoring during the work, procurement, contractors and outsourcing, the life cycle perspective, waste, handover and learning from error, emergency preparedness, and monitoring the controls
The life cycle perspective given its own section, including the design route it opens
Waste given its own section, since neither standard has a waste clause
An eight-element maturity ladder, four levels each, described as observable behavior
Appendix A — control determination and criteria record
Appendix B — hierarchy worksheet
Appendix C — work instruction with worked examples
Appendix D — the integration decision record with rejected alternatives
Every requirement marked by scope — [Q] ISO 9001 only, [E] ISO 14001:2026 only, unmarked for both
A process interaction map, supplied as an editable SVG as well as inside the document
A clause cross-reference to both standards

52 pages, Microsoft Word, fully editable. Covers ISO 9001 Clauses 8.5.1–8.5.6 and 8.6; ISO 14001:2026 Clauses 8.1 and 8.2. Perennia Corp is a fictional organization used throughout as a worked example.

Who it is for

Organizations holding certification to both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001:2026 that run production or service delivery under one set of controls rather than a quality control plan and a separate environmental one.

Free update to the ISO 9001:2026 edition. ISO 9001 is expected to publish a new edition in 2026. Because this procedure contains the ISO 9001 scope, your purchase includes a free update to the 9001:2026 alignment when MSI issues it. Register your purchase to receive it. The ISO 14001:2026 content is already current.

Buying more than one procedure

Every procedure in this family is sold individually, and the complete sets are sold as packages. If you are building or rebuilding a documented system rather than filling one gap, the package is the better route — and these are the ones that contain ISO 9001 or ISO 14001:2026.

Package	Covers
ISO 9001 procedure templates and guide	The full ISO 9001 procedure set
ISO 14001:2026 procedure templates and guides	The full ISO 14001:2026 procedure set
ISO 9001 + ISO 14001:2026 + ISO 45001	The integrated set, all three standards
ISO 9001 + ISO 13485	Quality with medical devices
ISO 14001:2026 + ISO 45001	Environment with health and safety

Questions

Which one do I need?

Take the template for the standard you are certified to. If you run more than one management system through one process, take the matching combined variant — Device for ISO 9001 with ISO 13485, Q/EMS for ISO 9001 with ISO 14001, HSE for ISO 14001 with ISO 45001, and Integrated for all three of quality, environment and safety. This page is the Q/EMS variant.

Is this written for ISO 14001:2026 or the 2015 edition?

The 2026 edition. Clause references, the policy commitments and the communication requirements are taken from ISO 14001:2026 as published, not carried over from 2015 and relabelled.

Is the hierarchy of controls a requirement?

No, and this procedure says so plainly. ISO 14001:2026 8.1 carries a note recording that controls can be implemented following a hierarchy; a note is not a requirement, and ISO 9001 has nothing. It is offered as good practice because an interim control still has to be chosen while a shortfall is open, and naming the level makes that choice visible.

What is the life cycle perspective and why does it have its own section?

ISO 14001:2026 8.1 a) to d) require environmental requirements to be addressed in design, determined for procurement, communicated to external providers, and — the one most often missed — that the organization considers the need to provide information about potential significant impacts from transportation, use, end-of-life treatment and final disposal. ISO 9001 has no equivalent. It gets its own section because folding it into general operational control is how it disappears.

What happens when ISO 9001:2026 is published?

Your purchase includes a free update to the ISO 9001:2026 alignment when MSI issues it. Register your purchase to receive it. The ISO 14001:2026 content is already current.

Can I edit it?

Yes. Microsoft Word format, fully editable, with the process interaction map supplied as an editable SVG. Bracketed entries are decisions for you to make; nothing is left blank or marked TBD.
