Abstract

With the increasing demand for high quality products in every field, the demand for a good
quality management system (QMS) in every organisation is increasing. This has since been wellappreciated
by many organisations who have adopted QMS like IS0 9000, which has standardised
the requirements for QMS. A well-organised QMS benefits the organisation in achieving its
goals and sucess in its missions.
In this paper, author's experiences in QMS and its implementation during his long tenure
at ISRO, are briefly described. The author recalls a few incidents he faced during working on
the projects of ISRO and DRDO, highlighting issues wrt quality and reliability, QMS, and IS0 9000
implementation. A few guidelines for effective QMS implementation are also suggested
