IIDEA Limited are delighted to announce that we have recently been accredited to the ISO 9001:2015 standard. ISO 9001 is the most widely recognised Quality Assurance Standard in the world with more than one million companies in over 190 countries worldwide having been assessed to, and met the requirements of the standard.
In addition to being a Quality Assurance Standard, ISO 9001 is a powerful business improvement tool. Operating a business to the standard can help ensure that its customers get consistent service and products which can in turn lead to repeat business and growth; it helps the business to be more focused, efficient and improve customer satisfaction through a philosophy of continual improvement.
IIDEA held the previous version of this standard, ISO 9001:2008 for almost as long as the company has existed. The new standard ISO 9001:2015 was launched in 2015 with the 2008 version of the standard heading to obsolescence in 2018. We took the opportunity during our three-yearly re-certification audit earlier this year to re-certify to the newer 2015 version of the standard. We have been awaiting the arrival of our new ISO 9001:2015 certificate prior to announcing our new status but this has taken longer than anticipated due to the large number of companies wanting to “upgrade” all at the same time leading to a massive backlog of applicants.
