ISO 9001: International Quality Management Systems Standard.

ISO 9001 is the international standard used for certification of an organization’s quality management system to assure they can consistently provide products and services that meet customer specifications and adhere to relevant regulatory requirements. ISO 9001 goes beyond just having a quality control department, it takes your company to another level of excellence where your Quality Management Systems are integrated into your company culture, with everyone from the shop floor to the top floor focused on consistent quality. It is integrated with your company’s overall strategic direction, requiring you to identify, create and focus on key performance indicators (KPI’s), conduct SWOT analyses to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats, and more. ISO 9001 helps you increase operational efficiency, improve quality and increase profits.
