The Quality Management System and implementation with Central Function at the following location:
Radwell International
- United Kingdom: Unit 5, Dalewood Road, Lymedale Business Park, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire ST5 9QZ
The scope of ISO certification:
The stocking, repairing, and selling of new and surplus industrial automation, MRO, pneumatic, motion, electronic, hydraulic, HVAC, and electrical and control equipment for plant floor and facility maintenance machinery.
Certificate Expires: August 30, 2021
Certificate Issued: August 31, 2018
There are five different aspects to consider. The first is to build documentation to support your business certification. That documentation takes on two different factors: the ISO required documents and also the individual department documents that outline procedures and work instructions. Both have to be in sync.
The next phase is to train the managers that will be living the standards and ensure they have everything they need to supply materials to their teams and get the whole organisation on board.
Along with this, the senior team has to support the entire endeavour. They wholeheartedly support this at Radwell, and it is necessary within any organisation for this to be the case to get the certification process completed. ISO requires that you live the standard for three months, using all of your documentation and organisational standards.
The final piece is to conduct audits. There is an internal audit completed by a team of Radwell employees based on the standards created. The next audit is conducted by an outside company. Between audits, there is an opportunity to get things straightened out as needed. The internal audit is kind of like a dress rehearsal for the external independent audit. Findings are reported to the senior team, and an organisation either gets its certification, or additional things are required to be improved prior to the final audit.
It's a lot of coordination, and it involves a lot of support from department heads within the organisation and their teams.
