  • What is Annex SL?
  • Annex SL provides the new high level structure for ISO management systems standards - it replaces the historical ISO Guide 83 and expands on the base structure already implemented.
  • It has been created to introduce identical core text and common terms and definitions. This will:
  • streamline standards
  • encourage standardization
  • ease the integration of management systems.
  • New High Level Structure of Clauses
  • The numbered list below is the a replica of the numbered sections of the high level structure - the specific requirements of each management standard will be found within these sections.
  • 1. Scope
  • 2. Normative References
  • 3. Terms and Definitions
  • 4. Context of the Organization
  • 5. Leadership
  • 6. Planning
  • 7. Support
  • 8. Operation
  • 9. Performance Evaluation
  • 10. Improvement
  • Practical Implications
  • ISO 9001:2015 follows the structure, core text and definitions of Annex SL. ISO 9001:2008 is not affected.
