ISO 9001 Certified - Quality Management System Carlos Arboles


01/12/2022
ISO 9001 is an international standard that establishes the requirements for a quality management system in an organization. The standard was developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and applies to all types of organizations, regardless of size or industry. The standard focuses on ensuring customer satisfaction through continual improvement of processes and the effectiveness of the quality management system.

To achieve this, the standard establishes a series of requirements that must be met by the organization, such as the definition of a quality policy, the identification of key processes, the measurement and analysis of performance and the implementation of preventive and corrective actions. Organizations seeking ISO 9001 certification must demonstrate that they meet all these requirements and can be audited regularly to ensure that standards are maintained.

This certification is carried out by independent certification bodies, which evaluate the organization's quality management system through an audit and issue a certificate of conformity if the requirements of the standard are met. In the case of Carlos Arboles, we have been certified according to ISO 9001:2015 since 1997. And, the scope of this approval is applicable to the design and manufacture of faucets for laboratories and emergency showers and eyewashes. In this article we will explain the benefits of ISO 9001 certification and the eight principles of the Carlos Arboles Quality Management System.

Benefits of ISO 9001 certification 

 
Obtaining ISO 9001 certification is important for an organization for several reasons. First, certification demonstrates that the organization has implemented a quality management system that meets the requirements set forth by ISO 9001. This can be a competitive advantage for the organization, as many companies and public bodies require their suppliers to be certified to this standard. This standard provides a company with a wide range of benefits, including:
 
  • Improved customer satisfaction: this standard focuses on customer satisfaction and continuous process improvement. This can improve the quality of the products and services offered by the company and, therefore, customer satisfaction and loyalty.
  • Improved efficiency and effectiveness of processes: by documenting the company's processes, internal communication improves and workers can save time by learning how to perform certain tasks, since they have it documented. This implies a reduction of errors and an increase in productivity. 
  • Cost reduction: the implementation of a quality management system can help reduce costs by eliminating unnecessary processes, reducing errors and improving efficiency.
  • Improved company image and reputation: ISO 9001 certification can be a signal to customers and suppliers that the company is committed to quality and continuous improvement, which can improve its image and reputation.
  • Improved decision making: this standard requires measurement and analysis of the performance of the quality management system, which can provide valuable information for decision making and identification of areas for improvement.
