| Abstract | There are many success factors to enterprises such as technology, human power, economic and
market environment and quality. Among these, the quality is considered one of the important
factors to manage companies. Nobody can deny that without quality improving, no companies
can expect success in business. This kind of trend is more important under the borderless
market after inaugurating World Trade Organization (WTO).
The ISO 9000 series is one of the Quality Management System (QMS). It was developed as
International Standards by the International Organization for Standardization in 1987.
Especially after the establishment of the European Union, these standards become very
essential to companies wishing to export to the EU.
Korea, traditionally an export oriented country, has keen attention to implement ISO 9000. By
implementing ISO 9000, Korea wish to improve the companies' quality before entering the EU
market.
Throughout this study, I would like to show how Korea implemented ISO 9000, how Korean
companies think about the effects and difficulties of the implementation and use of ISO 9000.
Some findings and recommendations are given for better implementation of ISO 9000 in
Korea and for further studies of the same topic. |
