In today's competitive world, securing reliable, high-quality metal is crucial for your success. That's where ISO certification steps in, offering a powerful guarantee of excellence in every aspect of a supplier's operation. It's not just a label; it's a badge of trust that ensures your projects get the metal they deserve. But what exactly does being ISO certified mean? And why does it matter when selecting a metal supplier? Here's an in-depth look. Think of ISO certification as a stamp of approval. It means an independent organization has verified that a company's internal systems, like manufacturing processes or service procedures, meet internationally recognized standards for quality and consistency.What is ISO Certification?
And the best part? There's an ISO certification for just about everything! From quality management (like the well-known ISO 9001) to environmental sustainability and cybersecurity, these standards help businesses improve efficiency, minimize risks, and ultimately, deliver better products and services.
What is ISO 9001:2015?
Making sense of ISO 9001:2015 can be like cracking a code. But at Mead Metals, we prioritize clear communication and transparency around our quality commitment. So, let's decode this certification by breaking down its 3 main components.
ISO
ISO stands for the International Organization for Standardization, an independent, non-governmental organization that develops and publishes international standards. It's responsible for setting the bar for quality management systems worldwide.
9001
This number refers specifically to quality management standards. The ISO 9000 family covers various aspects of quality management, and 9001 focuses on best practices for efficiency, effectiveness, and customer satisfaction.
2015
These four digits represent the year the current version of the standard was published. ISO regularly updates its standards, and ISO 9001:2015 is the fifth edition released in September 2015. Mead Metals has updated its processes to meet the specifications of this newest version.
