A 28-page quality manual in Word, structured to clauses 4 to 10 of ISO 9001:2026, written for a small or mid-sized company and ready to tailor in a day. Guidance notes in blue tell you what to keep, change or delete.
What you get
- Complete manual text covering scope, context, leadership, planning, support, operation, performance evaluation and improvement.
- 2026 wording built in: quality culture and ethical behavior, separate risks and opportunities, planning of changes, climate change consideration and the new documented information phrasing.
- Quality policy examples for manufacturing and service companies.
- Process interaction map and a process list table you can edit.
- Cross-reference table from each clause to your procedures and records.
- Document control block, revision history and approval page.
Who it is for
Companies that keep a quality manual because customers ask for one, and companies seeking certification for the first time. ISO 9001 has not required a manual since 2015, but most certified companies still maintain one as the map of their system.
How to use it
- Replace the highlighted fields with your company details.
- Follow the blue guidance notes clause by clause, then delete them.
- Complete the cross-reference table and issue the manual under document control.

What every download includes
Templates refer to clause numbers and describe requirements in our own words. They do not reproduce the text of any ISO standard, so you need your own licensed copy. Templates support your system; they do not guarantee certification.
Questions about ISO 9001:2026 Quality Manual Template
Does ISO 9001:2026 require a quality manual?
No. The requirement was removed in the 2015 edition and has not returned. Many companies keep one because customers request it and because it explains the system in one place.
How long should a quality manual be?
For a small or mid-sized company, 20 to 30 pages is typical. Longer manuals tend to repeat procedures and go out of date.
Can I use this to update an existing 2015 manual?
Yes. The changed sections are marked, so you can lift the 2026 wording into your current manual instead of starting again.
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.
