Quality is key, for every business. Especially for Your Business. And more and more people who intend to do business with you check whether the ISO9001 certificate is present in your company, as a way to be sure that you do everything you can to deliver the quality they demand and deserve.

And we are coming to a point where not having that certificate is an emergency.

Why, you ask?

Because your competition does, or is in the process of being certified.

Meaning that potential customers might very well go to them to fulfill the order they intended to give to you, just because you never bothered certifying.

Just imagine, a customer orders 2500 items of your product A, with red finishing.

You make them, and the customer gets them.

Within minutes of receiving the shipment, they are on the phone, shouting at you about the ugly red finishing when they specifically ordered black.

You know he ordered red.

But you have nothing in writing, because you have no real process in place to deal with orders. You get them, you fulfill them, and you ship them out. Done.

But now things went wrong and you could very well end up losing the client, or a lot of money on the re-do of the shipment.

So yes, it is an actual emergency, because you are losing prospective clients just because you dont really feel like getting certified.

Or just havent gotten around to actually doing it. And every client you lose means money you dont get.

This is an emergency that can spread like a wildfire, but luckily the remedy is much easier than fighting a wildfire.

Simply start the process for certification Today.

Like every emergency the options are to fight or to run away. Running away means not taking the chances you get, and never getting them back.

Fighting on the other hand, just means to take the first step on your journey to being certified.

A fight you dont have to fight alone.

Anitech Consulting’s specialised consultants are available to assist and advice you when it comes to the process and the things you need to do / deliver to make sure that your certification is successful.

You deliver quality in your business. All the time, every time. 24hrs 365 days a year.  The problem: So Does Everyone Else.

Or at least, everyone is telling others that they do. So how can you stand out in that vast amount of people who apparently all deliver quality?

You might have heard about certification, about getting certified so that others can see that an independent third party actually confirms your claims regarding quality.

But you just never got around to going into the probably very long and arduous process.

And yes, it will take some time, but it is very important that you dont keep postponing it, because it will make you stand out very clearly when compared to the competition.

Many entrepreneurs are afraid that you have to fit in a very tight framework, that everything is determined and that there is no room for the freedom that led them down the entrepreneurial path in the first place.

Anitech Consulting is here to tell you: That notion is just plainly wrong!

Yes, there is a framework.

But ISO9001 does not offer a strict checklist saying: Do this and this and that and you are certified.

The quality certification offers a framework that your system for quality management has to fit in to. It does not dictate how you need to quality management in your unique situation.

In short, this is what you will need to do, and as youll see, it is not that difficult:

  • Describe what it is you do (or plan on doing) and write down all the different processes for quality in your organization. This leads to a blueprint of your business.

  • Do what you have described earlier.

  • Prove that you have done so, using minutes, measured data and external audits

Basically, to get ISO9001 certified, what you need is a well-oiled quality management system, containing a number of processes that maximize quality.

So that you dont only pay attention to quality every once in a while, but all day, every day.

It is a process that once youve started it, never ends.

The goal is to create a mindset in yourself and your people to make sure that quality and customer satisfaction are always on top of your mind.

So dont wait longer, enlist a consultant, like us, to help you. To guide you through the process and work with you to make sure that when you tell someone you deliver quality, you can back it up with facts.
