Welcome

ISO 45001 Systems Certification takes care of the well-being and wellness of your workers. In association with business requirements, we promote occupational health and safety (OHS) for companies. The ISO 45001 Standard for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems helps businesses avoid work-related injuries and illnesses, and maintains safe and efficient workplaces. This standard applies to all types of companies, regardless of their size or industry.

They foster organizations’ occupational health and safety (OHS) as per industry standards. The Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (OHSMS) ISO 45001 standard helps businesses avoid work-related accidents and diseases, and ensures clean and safe workplaces. This standard extends to all forms of organizations, irrespective of the scale or nature of them.

Organizations are required to incorporate the policy with their health and safety policies for employees’ wellbeing and wellness, which satisfy regulatory specifications. The new OHSMS model has the same High-Level Framework (HLS) to enhance consistency with other requirements of the management method.

Switching from OHSAS 18001 to ISO 45001

ISO 45001 will follow the existing OHSAS 18001 standard, as existing OHSAS 18001 users will need to upgrade their systems to the latest international standard. The businesses have three years to adapt to the new standard since its introduction (published in March 2018).

Compliance with ISO 9001 requirements allowed you to use comprehensive indicators to analyze all of your processes. This evaluation ensures that your quality control and business practices are managed to meet the highest quality possible.

ISO recognition demands that company measures be utilized to ensure you achieve those goals. These metrics are linked to your quality goals and organizational strategy, as well as your declarations for your vision and mission.

How ISO Performance Control is Supporting Your Clients

As shown by the following practices, focus on the customer is a high priority:

• Knowing customer needs
• Organizational priorities suit customer expectations
• It follows or exceeds customer expectations and requirements.
• Customer satisfaction will be measured on a consistent schedule.
• It retains partnerships with customers.
• Understand and promote expectations regarding supply chain management.

ISO certification means that your production activities have eliminated discrepancies from the products and you have reached your output goals.

ISO 14001 standards, developed by the International Organization for Standardization in 1996, form part of a family of standards ( ISO 14000) designed to promote and direct an environmental management approach. It is ideal for any form of organization (company, NGOs , government, etc.) associated with enhancing the framework of its growth, management, and operations as a way of tracking its environmental impact better. As we can further clarify, this standards’ criteria (updated in 2015) will be reviewed and accredited by an authorized agency like ISO Pros.

What is ISO 14001 for?

ISO 14001 has 2 main objectives:

• Giving companies a formal and accepted framework to assist them in drawing up an effective environmental protection plan;
• Act as an official acknowledgment and reward for organizations efforts to improve their environmental policies.

Throughout 2019, the ISO 14001 certification benefitted more than 362 000 companies worldwide. Nowadays, this certification has become relevant in terms of identification and as a solution to the demands of many contractors, who see this certificate as proof of the environmental interests of a client. But ISO 14001 requirements are also an important aspect of the corporate social responsibility ( CSR) policy of a vast range of organizations.

The advantages of certification for your management system:

The management system must allow the company to open doors and benefit from untapped international and domestic markets to:

Expanded consumer access

National authorities do require or actively wish to have an audited and approved third-party management system in place for companies exporting medical products in their area. Investing in a network speeds up connectivity to the countries that do require it, as well as speeds up business penetration to certain countries.

Reducing the cost of sales

The certification lays down the company’s reputation and dedication to quality. It requires less time to achieve the faith and respect of your prospective clients, as the task of explaining the complexities and demonstrating the effectiveness of your management systems becomes much simpler.

Improved performance

This is based on the structured and commonly accepted process control system, the organization’s authorized management software will help you to improve the processes and products. This can build strengthened relationships with all your distributors, corporate associates, and customers as well as giving you a strong advantage for the industry.

What are the advantages of persuading senior executives?

When you’re the one attempting to persuade the management why introducing a QMS is a smart idea, you’ll want to be willing to demonstrate to them the savings they’ll get after the project is done because while there’s no immediate cash gain, there are other incentives that can have long-term gains for the company.

While the benefits of implementing AS9100 are commonly seen, it’s important to remember that only what you design to deliver will be returned to your quality management system. The requirements of the AS9100 are non-prescriptive, meaning the standard tells you what to implement but not how to implement them. This means you can adapt the processes needed by the QMS to fit the needs and culture of your business.

Make sure the QMS is customized to your needs and to your tasks. For instance, AS9100 allows you to have an organizational risk management process, but make it a mechanism from which you will reap gains from actually reducing the risks, rather than just having to do what the AS9100 requires. The specifications of AS9100 are the industry standard for a successful quality management system, so make sure you get the benefits that you want for your money.

IATF 16949 allows you to reduce the variability and waste in the supply chain by constantly enhancing the products of an automotive organization. IATF 16949 is the benchmark for quality assurance systems in the Automotive industry. The standard follows the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system as the foundation for the guideline that incorporates modern automotive requirements around the globe. This shows an outstanding contribution to quality performance by adopting the standard in your organization.

Automobile Quality Management Systems guarantees the organization provides durable products and performs operations in compliance with the automobile industry’s stringent guidelines. This sets out standards for the design and creation, manufacturing, production, and installation of automobile-related products, as well as unique facilities for the automotive industry, for the quality control systems. Having a credential means that your partners are dedicated to a secure and reliable supply chain with your enterprise.

Not only are the quality specifications to be met by Tier 1-, 2- and 3-car producers, they also vary from country to country, and from dealer to supplier. More and more car producers are adopting the updated technical specification IATF 16949 to reduce expensive time-consuming use of different certifications.

As a longtime supporter of the automobile industry, we have helped with the implementation of this critical industry standard from the outset. We certify leading vendors across the United States and have deep experience with IATF 16949 and the standards established by major manufacturers.

With ISO Pros you will rely on our flexibility. Our auditors also take the specific processes within the enterprise into account. As a result, you’ll be able to apply its requirements in the particular processes of your organization.

With CMMC you can prepare cybersecurity controls with practices to protect the DoD data and submit them for government contracts. The Department of Defense’s Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) seeks to improve security standards and procedures to better secure confidential DoD data kept by vendors and their supply chain collaborators, especially Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Beginning in 2021, with certain elements scheduled to appear in RFIs and RFPs by the end of 2020, DOD contractors and subcontractors will need to show conformity with CMMC specifications and a degree of complexity when applying for federal contracts, meaning that they will need to assess many protection protocols across 17 security areas and the efficiency of their contracts. It is important to plan to reach the appropriate maturity level based on the handling of essential DoD data types, or at least for what the company expects it will handle in the future.

When you’re a Defense Industrial Base contractor, you’ll need to meet as much as 171 compliance requirements to help you to qualify for all future federal contracts, which are based on the DOD’s latest technology criteria and competency evaluation. CMMC will continue to exist in a small range of Requests for Information (RFIs) and Proposal Requests (RFPs) by the end of 2020. The time to confirm that you have adopted all of the best procedures will catch up to you before you even know it. You’ll use this time to get an understanding of the requirements the organization will follow with regard to the DoD and the type of contract you can apply for.

Let’s consider the importance of a CMMI evaluation. It was created by the Carnegie-Melon University, Software Engineering Institute (SEI). SEI has historically been the department that not only recognizes and recommends policy improvements, processes, and tactics but also provides an objective and independent “appraisal” of whether an organization is actively applying such values. The last point alone supports a CMMI assessment from a pure enforcement perspective.

It has become more popular to see the obligation of a development firm to perform a satisfactory CMMI appraisal, to even apply for Federal Government contracts. Bottom line: if you’re working with the Federal Government, if you haven’t already done so, it’s best to continue with your CMMI appraisal!

Repeatability is the essence of the success of the project and because they are now the norm and as it is not as challenging, everything needs to be in accordance with the company’s goals. It is doubtful, that if you don’t have an appraisal, that your organization would have put in motion a stable and measurable process that everyone knows about and directs operations. You would see ROI through job optimization, calculation methods, ownership/accountability, administration, and how through a standardized workflow all organizational elements play a role inconsistency, just to name a few!
