The revised ISO9001:2000 accreditation addresses the requirements for an organisation to demonstrate its capability to meet customer requirements and enhance customer satisfaction.
Robert Halpin, Shearline's Business Development Manager commented: "We are delighted to receive the new ISO accreditation; it is a great step for the business as it reinforces our philosophy of focusing on quality above all else; not just in the work we produce but also in the staff employed and the environment we all work in.
I am surprised that some of the registered companies have applied late for the revised accreditation.
In today's competitive marketplace it is invaluable to have endorsement from the likes of the British Standards Institute".
The main changes in the revised ISO standards are the increased focus on senior management commitment, emphasis on the process approach within the organisation and continual improvement and customer satisfaction.
The revision is based on eight quality management principles that reflect best management practices; customer focus, leadership, involvement of people, process approach, systems approach, continual improvement, factual approach to decision making and mutually beneficial supplier relationships.
