Instant download. Editable files. One-organization licence.

A clause-by-clause comparison of ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 9001:2026 that tells you what changed, how much it matters and which of your documents to update. It is the fastest way to brief your team and your certification auditor on your transition scope.

What you get

  • Change matrix in Excel: every clause and sub-clause from 4 to 10, mapped from the 2015 edition to the 2026 edition, with change type, a plain-English explanation, impact rating, documents typically affected and a recommended action.
  • Columns for your own use: affected document numbers, owner, status and completion date, so the matrix doubles as transition evidence.
  • Two-page executive summary (PDF) you can hand to top management.
  • Annex A note sheet explaining how the expanded guidance annex is likely to influence auditors.

Who it is for

Quality managers who need to explain the revision internally, and anyone who wants to see the full picture before committing to a transition plan.

How to use it

  1. Read the executive summary with your management team.
  2. Walk the matrix and list your affected documents against each changed clause.
  3. Keep the completed matrix as objective evidence that you reviewed the new edition.

Questions about ISO 9001:2015 to 2026 Change Matrix

What are the main changes in ISO 9001:2026?

Top management must promote quality culture and ethical behavior, risks and opportunities are now handled in separate sub-clauses, planning of changes is expanded, climate change must be considered in your context, and awareness requirements are wider. The clause structure from 4 to 10 stays the same.

Does the matrix quote the standard?

No. ISO standards are copyrighted, so the matrix describes each change in our own words and refers to clause numbers. Use it alongside your licensed copy.

Is this different from the Gap Analysis Workbook?

Yes. The matrix explains what changed in the standard. The Gap Analysis Workbook scores your own system against the new edition. Many buyers use both, and both are in the Transition Toolkit.

How will I receive the files?

A download button appears on the order confirmation page and the same link is emailed to you within a few minutes. Bundles arrive as one ZIP file.

Can I get a refund?

Digital files cannot be returned, so refunds are limited to non-delivery, defective files, wrong items and duplicate purchases. The full contents are listed above so you can check the fit before buying. See the refund policy.

Can I use the templates with more than one company?

Each purchase is licensed to one organization. Consultants and groups need one licence per client or legal entity. See the licence agreement.
