According to ISO 9000:2000 Conformity
is defined as "Fulfillment of a requirement". A
non-conformity therefore would be a non-fulfillment of a
requirement. In the context of conformity the word conformance is
ofthen used, which in the negative sense is also called non
conformance. Conformance is defined as "An affirmative
indication or judgment that a product or service has met the
requirements of the relevant specifications , contract, or
regulation; also the state of meeting the requirements."
In order to meet ISO 9000 requirements non-conforming products have to be controlled.
