IEEE 90003-2008 IEEE Guide - Adoption of ISO/IEC 90003:2004 - Software Engineering - Guidelines for the Application of ISO 9001:2000 to Computer Software
This International Standard provides guidance for organizations in the application of ISO 9001:2000 to the
acquisition, supply, development, operation and maintenance of computer software and related support
services. It does not add to or otherwise change the requirements of ISO 9001:2000.
Annex A (informative) provides a table pointing to additional guidance in the implementation of ISO 9001:2000
available in ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 7 and ISO/TC 176 standards.
The guidelines provided in this International Standard are not intended to be used as assessment criteria in
quality management system registration/certification.
The application of this International Standard is appropriate to software that is
— part of a commercial contract with another organization,
— a product available for a market sector,
— used to support the processes of an organization,
— embedded in a hardware product, or
— related to software services.
Some organizations may be involved in all of the above activities; others may specialize in one area. Whatever
the situation, the organization’s quality management system should cover all aspects (software related and nonsoftware
related) of the business.
