It is IRIS (International Railway Industry Standard). It is Railway QMS
ISO/TS 22163 is the global standard for quality management systems in the rail industry. It is based on the ISO 9001 quality management standard, with the addition of rail-specific requirements. Released in May 2017, it replaced the previous quality standard IRIS Rev. 02.
ISO/TS 22163 was created to ensure higher quality standards in terms of facilities, operating equipment and services. It aims to achieve global uniformity in language, assessment guidelines and audits in order to create a higher level of transparency throughout the railway supply chain.

1. Deliver consistently high standards of quality
2. Comply with railway quality management standards
3. Discover quality management problems and resolve them fast
4. Gain a competitive edge by demonstrating your dedication to quality
