ISO 9001 - Quality Management Systems
The world's most recognised quality management standard — audited by an INAB-accredited body.
About ISO 9001
ISO 9001 is the most recognised and widely used quality management standard throughout the world. The standard uses the plan, do, check, act cycle management framework to improve business practices helping to provide services and products that meet your customers' expectations.
The standard is based on a number of quality management principles with systematic approaches that your business is encouraged to follow whilst allowing flexibility on how this is done. The standard is relevant to any manufacturing process or service organisation. ISO 9001 can help you to become more efficient, improve results, quality and customer satisfaction.
Why seek accredited certification to ISO 9001?
When implementing an ISO 9001 management system many organisations seek certification by an accredited certification body. This gives assurance to the customer that the certification body such as OMNi has been audited by the Irish National Accreditation Board (INAB) and certified against ISO standards such as ISO 17021-1:2015 and ISO 17065:2012 for delivery of Certification services. By adhering to these standards, OMNi ensures that our clients receive a high-level quality service.
ISO 9001 Certification may assist organisations to achieve preferred supplier status as it demonstrates to customers that the organisation is in compliance with an Internationally recognised standard. Many businesses choose to trade with companies who comply with recognised standards ahead of those who don't. So, why is this?
The ISO 9001 Quality Management System will help you streamline your processes, reduce errors, free up valuable management time and improve internal communications.
In short, by adopting ISO 9001 you demonstrate that your organisation is customer-focused and committed to delivering high quality services.
