Benefits of ISO 9001 to your business


ISO 9001:2008 aims to provide a practical and workable Quality Management System for improving and monitoring all areas of your business.

Achieving the standard is not about establishing a set of procedures that are complicated and difficult to manage. With the right support and the knowledge of your employees, you will end up with a system that will improve all areas of your organisation.

Implementing an effective and robust Quality Management System (QMS) will help you to focus on the important areas of your business and improve efficiency. The management processes that are established throughout your business will provide a sound foundation, leading to increased productivity and profit. This in turn will improve your customer acquisition and retention.

Some of the main benefits include:
  • Suitable for both small and large organisations
  • Better internal management
  • Less wastage
  • Increase in efficiency, productivity and profit
  • Improved customer retention and acquisition
  • Consistent outcomes, measured and monitored
  • Globally recognised standard

It gives your customers confidence that you are working to standards and procedures that will provide them with a high standard of customer service.
