Our Quality Management System (QMS) ensures your business is being handled with the highest service standards and levels of consistency, no matter who you work with in our organization. The eight quality management principles on which the ISO quality standard is based are used as a framework to guide our organization towards continual improved performance and delivering greater value to our clients:
- Customer focus
- Leadership
- Involvement of people
- Process approach
- System approach to management
- Continual improvement
- Factual approach to decision making
- Mutually beneficial supplier relationships
Achieving and maintaining this quality standard and certification is an extensive process. We are required to conduct internal audits on a continual basis throughout each year. We also undergo rigorous external audits by Intertek annually, and our QMS is recertified every year.
What does this mean for you?
