Increase Competitiveness with ISO 9001 and Quality Assurance
Quality assurance helps businesses maintain consistent product and service quality to ensure smooth-running production and fulfil customers’ high-quality expectation.
Quality assurance is a broader term that includes systems for documentation, standard operating procedures, quality control samples and external quality assessment schemes, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO).
Although quality assurance and quality control are often used interchangeably, each refers to a different aspect of quality management. The latter focuses on quality detection when testing products in a laboratory environment.
Quality assurance is a critical part of quality management focused on providing confidence in achieving quality requirements. Each organisation has specific needs and challenges regarding quality assurance in their industry.
Effective quality management systems can prevent defects, recalls and customer complaints, maintaining a good reputation and lowering costs incurred with the above. It also helps improve competitiveness in the marketplace by promoting excellent quality practices.
Our SHEQX (Health, Safety, Environment and Quality) management solution aggregates SHEQ data in a single, auditable database and manages analysis and reporting effectively, ensuring effective compliance and a more robust approach to corporate sustainability.
Such systems should include up-to-standards quality planning, assurance, and control measurements. Other requirements include preventative measures, inspections and test plans, tracking tools and methods, as well as employee training in quality, health and safety.
It is imperative to maintain visibility into quality processes and clear communication with all stakeholder to ensure quality improvements and prevention of quality defects.
Achieving compliance with the universal and internationally recognised standard for quality management like ISO 9001:2015 is a step closer to bridge product quality challenges and ensure consistency throughout the production process.
Invest in an accredited quality management system aligned with ISO 9001 principles that assist with enforced legal compliance with quality management standards, quality assurance planning and monitoring procedures.
