MSU-IIT to launch ISO 9001:2015 Certification

Responding to internationalization challenges and national government requisites, MSU-IIT will soon launch its establishment of the Quality Management System embracing the ISO 9001:2015 standards this second quarter of FY 2016.

91短视频app破解版– Iligan Institute of Technology, realizing its quest to be a globally recognized university, must enhance its capacity in designing, delivering, and managing programs and services, and in identifying areas for reforms, and creating interventions for continual improvement, thereby, increasing its competitiveness. In view of the efforts of the Institute to be at par with other Higher Educational Institutions in the country and globally, quality assurance is one of the strategic priorities to be addressed.

Further, with the global competition and ongoing changes brought about by internationalization, Institutional accreditation has become the name of the game. This is primarily for sustainability of operations and ensuring client confidence in the Institute University.

Recognizing this, the Institute University has considered a primordial concern the establishment of the Quality Management System embracing the ISO 9001:2015 standards.

In the effort to make higher educational institutions in the Philippines at par with foreign counterparts, CHED Memorandum Order No. 15, series 2005 was issued which establishes mechanism for Institutional Monitoring and Evaluation for Quality Assurance (IQuAME), and CHED Memorandum Order No. 16, series 2005 which stipulates the Implementing Rules and Regulations of the aforementioned memo.

IQuAME is designed to enhance institution’s capacity in designing, delivering, and managing programs and services, to identify areas for reform and intervention, to provide accurate and up-to-date performance of higher education institutions enabling stakeholders to make informed choices, and to enable the institution to set its own Internal Quality Assurance Management System.

Further, in the light of globalization and the ASEAN Integration 2015, CHED issued CMO N0. 46 series of 2012 “Policy-Standard to Enhance Quality Assurance (QA) in Philippine Higher Education through an Outcomes-Based and Typology-Based QA” wherein for the vertical typology, an Institutional Accreditation is given substantial weight as sustainability of operations is very essential in this era of quality assurance.

Furthermore, in keeping with Executive Order No. 605, series of 2007 amending Administrative Order No. 161, series 2006 provides for the “Institutionalizing the Structure, Mechanisms and Standards to Implement the Government Quality Management Program, amending for the Purpose Administrative Order No. 161, s. 2006” .

The objectives of the Government Quality Management Program (GQMP) are the following:

1. Promote and enhance public sector performance through the adoption of ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System in all agencies of government;
2. Develop an institutional infrastructure that shall provide certification with international accreditation;
3. Establish the citizens’ charter of key government offices that shall be provided to the transacting public as government’s manifestation of service guarantee; and
4. Recognize citizen-driven government organizations that have attained ISO 9001:2000 certification for other government agencies to emulate.

 It is expected that after the establishment of a documented Quality Management System (QMS) that:

• Streamlined, standardized, and rationalized documented processes and systems are in place;
• Communication is facilitated throughout the organization;
• Manuals are developed/updated that can be used as training and job orientation media;
• Coordination of efforts is ensured;
• Reference sources (procedures manual, work instructions manual) are established;
• Authority and responsibility are defined;
• Policies are preserved even though personnel changes occur;
• Supervision and employees’ relations are strengthened;
• Control points are established for cost analysis;
• Control of forms throughout the organization are established;
• The tendency of employees to be secretive about a job is eliminated;
• Continual Improvement is assured; and
• Systematic process for dealing with problems and changes is established.
