Services: Quality Management

Introduction to ISO9001

Quality Management Systems are relevant to all organisations large or small, public or private, manufacturing or service.

ISO 9001:2015 is the internationally recognised standard for Quality Management Systems. It provides organisations with a framework and set of principles that ensure a common-sense approach to the management of business activities to consistently achieve customer satisfaction.

Any organisation can benefit from implementing ISO 9001:2015 as its requirements are underpinned by the 7 Management Principles:


  • A customer focused organisation.
  • Leadership.
  • The involvement of people.
  • Ensuring a process approach.
  • A factual approach to decision making.
  • Mutually beneficial supplier relations.
  • Continuous improvement.

How organisations benefit from ISO9001:2015 Certification
  • Reductions in costs, mistakes and defects due to improved quality and business planning.
  • Reductions in levels of customer complaints and the raising of customer satisfaction levels by correctly determining and achieving customer requirements. As a result, when you have higher rates of customer satisfaction, you see higher rates of repeat business.
  • An increase in productivity and efficiency as a result of improved quality management and awareness since the process approach examines each process within your company, as well as how those processes interact. In this way, it becomes easier to determine where you can make improvements, and where you can combine and save resources.
  • A consistent approach to procedures and processes by developing “best practices”.
  • Organisations improve their ability to win more business, particularly where procurement specifications require certification as a condition to supply and PQQ requirements.

The additional benefits include:

  • Improved access to new clients and markets.
  • The improvement of your organisations public image.
  • Improved decision making.
  • Your employees and workforce become more engaged and committed
  • Improved supply chain management.
