ISO 9001:2015 7.1.6: Organizational knowledge

The organization identifies the knowledge its processes need to run and to make products and services conform, keeps that knowledge, and makes it available as far as needed. When needs and trends change, it looks at what it knows already and decides how it will obtain, or gain access to, the further knowledge and updates it needs. Organizational knowledge may come from inside (intellectual property, lessons learned, experience, results of improvements) or from outside (standards, academia, conferences, customers and providers).
