The present paper describes the way of implementing Quality Management System (QMS)
according to ISO 9001 at the VSB – Technical University of Ostrava and the experiences with
its use. The implementation of QMS was executed as a four year project. The experience from
the pilot project part (implementation of QMS at selected faculty) was utilised during the
following application project part (implementation of QMS at the remaining of the faculties).
The effect of adopting the ISO 9000 approach on the quality of products of the university has
not been fully evaluated till this time, but a significant improvement of university culture
has been recognised. The method used for evaluating all effects of adopting ISO 9000 at
the university is a self-assessment according to the EFQM Model Excellence. The author’s
personal experience is also presented in the paper.
