Hi Eddie,

We conducted research on 3767 small and medium enterprises in Argentina that may interest you.

It is available in Research Gate. It is a paper presented at a conference in Portugal in 2012. It is entitled: " Relationships of quality management systems certification with business performance. Evidences from Argentina small and medium companies"

Sir,/mesdame, may I especially request not to down vote an answer (which was certainly devoted with effort) in this forum? As the one who raised the question, I would welcome all efforts to answer this question. Eddie

Hi Robert,

You may want to take a look into a presentation available in my page researchgate page on ISO 9001:2015 Revision. Since I am a member of the Portuguese ISO/TC 176 mirror TC, I shared some of the info available at that time. ISO TC 176 also has some interesting data on their web site (and by the way it is supposed there will be also an  ISO 14001:2015, I have one article in press about this and will add it to researchgate as available).

To Eddie: thanks, well done. Let´s keep it always constructive and share value (even if we do not always agree, which is not that uncommon between scholars and practitioners).  

Best to All.
