ISO 9001
We have helped over 500 organizations in Canada and organizations in Namibia, Nigeria, Oman, Seychelles, Tanzania, Trinidad and The Gambia earn ISO 9001 registration.
There are four main benefits for organizations that formalize their quality management system.
1: Tools to Prevent Problems
ISO 9001 contains many tools to help managers prevent problems from occurring. In most cases, companies that spend $1 on problem prevention save between $10- $100 in failure costs such as scrap, re-work, overtime, unhappy customers, employee injuries, increased insurance premiums, etc. In fact, some organizations justify the expense of becoming registered by the savings generated from prevented problems.Read More
2: Improved Consistency and Control of Operations
Managers gain more control over the operations and are able to increase the day-to-day consistency of the organization. From the customer’s point of view, greater consistency usually means higher customer satisfaction. Formalized management systems can also help reduce the impact of employee turnover on organizations.Read More
3: Continual Improvement
ISO 9001 provides tools to identify and act on cost takeout and customer service improvement opportunities. Management systems force the management team to be more responsible and accountable for continual improvement.
