We are pleased to announce that we have recently passed our surveillance audit for both ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 27001:2013 with the UKAS accredited British Assessment Bureau. This achievement is a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality management and information security.

Surveillance Audit

What are ISO 9001 and ISO 27001?

ISO 9001:2015 is an internationally recognised standard for quality management systems (QMS). It provides a robust framework to ensure that our products and services consistently meet customer expectations and stakeholder requirements, while also encouraging continuous improvement.

ISO 27001:2013 is the globally recognised standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It sets out the policies and procedures necessary to protect our information assets, ensuring their confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

 

The Significance of Passing the Surveillance Audit

Surveillance audits are conducted annually to ensure that an organisation continues to comply with the standards and maintains the systems effectively. Passing these audits confirms that our processes are not only in place but are also being effectively managed and continually improved.
