ISO 9001:2026 DIS introduces a new focus on opportunity-based thinking alongside risk-based thinking. What does this mean for organizations already certified to ISO 9001:2015?
In this video, we explain:
- The difference between risks and opportunities in ISO 9001:2026
- Why ISO has made opportunities a separate requirement
- How this change impacts audits, management reviews, and continual improvement
Opportunity-based thinking can be a game-changer if used for strategy and innovation, but it may also add complexity if treated only as compliance.
