The ISO9000 scheme has seen relatively little take-up in British archaeology (20 in 2008): I think it would be good to encourage its wider adoption. IfA does nudge ROs in this direction. Perhaps a line in the guidance could mention QA systems as a good thing.
Incidentally government advice is for public bodies to only count ISO firms accredited by members of UKAS - there are variations in practice elsewhere in the world under the nominal heading.
