Conformity

Conformity - To conform means to meet or comply with requirements. There are many types of requirements. There are quality requirements, customer requirements, product requirements, management requirements, legal requirements, and so on.

Requirements can be explicitly specified (like the ISO 9001 requirements) or implied. A specified requirement is one that has been stated (in a document, for example). When your organization meets a requirement, you can say that it conforms to that requirement.
