ProPhotonix’s UK subsidiary has successfully transitioned from ISO 9001:2008 to ISO 9001:2015.
International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001:2015 is the most recent version of the widely recognized ISO 9001 standard that measures the effectiveness of a company’s quality management system and performance, with a focus on organization-wide risk based thinking. The ISO process assists companies in developing a management system that aligns their quality strategy with its business strategy.
The certification from ISO 9001:2008 to ISO 9001:2015 provides additional assurance that the company is focused on continuous improvement and achieving excellence in customer service and delivery. The ISO 9001:2015 standard demands a higher degree of leadership commitment than the previous standards. ProPhotonix also states that the company is dedicated to constant improvement and development and maintaining ISO 9001 accreditation, ensuring they have the processes and systems in place for this. Their Irish subsidiary was successfully transitioned to ISO 9001:2015, November 2017.
The quality management systems at both manufacturing sites have undergone changes to meet the new requirements of ISO9001:2015 providing the opportunity to harmonize processes across both sites. Plans are now being made to move towards a single certification covering all manufacturing sites versus the current arrangement with both sites separately certificated.
