ISO 9001:2000 is the most recent revision of the ISO 9000 standard, which replaces the previous ISO 9000:1994 standard effective December 15, 2003.

The organization was founded in 1946 to develop a common set of standards for manufacturing, trade and communications.
Today more than 90 countries are members, each with a representative.
The representative for the United States is the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
Currently over 50,000 organizations in North America are certified to the ISO 9000 series of standards.
