當2009年2月國際標準組織176技術委員會（ISO/TC 176）於東京召開第26次會 議時，該次會議除眾所皆知的ISO 9000系列標準維持與更新外，更被賦予ISO 9001改 版理念與構思的重責。緊接2009年11月第三版ISO 9004「組織永續成功之管理參考－ 品質管理之方式」標準公布，除了點引出「風險」相關條文節數達15處外，更提醒企 業與組織於處理風險事件時，須同時參照「ISO 31000風險管理」一標準。以過程導 向為核心論述的ISO9000品質管理系統，在引領組織邁向永續經營的大道時，企業組 織更應發展與執行風險管理系統。

The 26th meeting of the ISO/TC 176 held in Tokyo in February 2009 passed a resolution that the well-known ISO 9000 series standard should be maintained and updated. In addition, new notions and ideas for a new edition of ISO 9001 came up at the meeting. In November the same year, ISO 9004:2009 “ Managing for the sustained success of an organization — A quality management approach,” the third edition of the standard, was published. The ISO 9004 standard mentions “risk” in a total of 15 articles and clauses. In addition, this edition reminds organizations to refer to ISO 31000 — a practical document that seeks to assist organizations in developing their own approach to the management of risk. While ISO 9000 that takes a process-oriented approach as its core concept and leads organizations to move toward sustainable management, it would be better for organizations to first develop and implement a risk management system.
