ISO 10001:2018, ISO 10002:2018, ISO 10003:2018, and ISO 10004:2018 are a series of standards that focus on customer satisfaction and address various aspects of managing complaints and enhancing customer experiences. The focus of this standard is on customers satisfaction.

ISO 10001:2018 – Quality management – Customer satisfaction – Guidelines for codes of conduct for organizations
Meeting a high level of customer satisfaction can be challenging, so ISO 10001:2018 helps organizations put in place a customer satisfaction code of conduct by offering guidelines for its planning, design, development, implementation, maintenance, and improvement.

ISO 10002:2018 – Quality management – Customer satisfaction – Guidelines for complaints handling in organizations
Customer complaints are one of the primary means by which a company or organization can gauge customer satisfaction.

10003:2018 – Quality management – Customer satisfaction – Guidelines for dispute resolution external to organizations
In terms of customer satisfaction, one of the most apprehensive thoughts for an organization is the possibility of a dispute.

ISO 10004:2018 – Quality management – Customer satisfaction – Guidelines for monitoring and measuring
While complaints and disputes can be a more-disastrous means of an organization generating awareness of customer satisfaction, regular monitoring of satisfaction is likely a better methodology to depend upon.
