You are correct: ISO here is the International Standards Organization.
What we refer to as "ISO 9000" is actually a family of three standards
(ISO 9001, ISO 9002 and ISO 9003) and a guideline document (ISO 9004).
9002 is a subset of 9001, and 9003 is a subset of 9002; for example, 9002
involves manufacturing operations only, whereas 9001 covers product
development as well.9003 covers only certain aspects of manufacturing.
