Question 1 of 30
\"GreenTech Solutions,\" a medium-sized enterprise specializing in renewable energy installations, is transitioning from ISO 9001:2008 to ISO 9001:2015. During a preliminary gap analysis, Imani, the newly appointed Quality Manager, discovers that while the company had a documented procedure for preventive action under the old standard, it wasn\'t consistently applied across all departments. Furthermore, the organization hadn\'t formally identified and assessed risks and opportunities associated with achieving its quality objectives. Considering the core changes introduced by ISO 9001:2015, what is the MOST critical change Imani needs to implement to align GreenTech\'s QMS with the new standard regarding risk management, ensuring a proactive and integrated approach rather than a reactive one?
Integrate risk-based thinking into all QMS processes, including planning, operations, performance evaluation, and improvement, by identifying risks and opportunities, planning actions to address them, and evaluating the effectiveness of these actions.
Maintain the existing preventive action procedure from ISO 9001:2008 but ensure that it is consistently applied across all departments, documenting all preventive actions taken and their outcomes.
Focus solely on addressing identified nonconformities and implementing corrective actions, as this is the primary focus of quality management systems.
Delegate the responsibility for risk management to a separate risk management department, independent of the QMS, to avoid conflicts of interest.
