Overview

The ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System (QMS) is the world’s most popular quality management system standard, with over one million certified organisations in 180 countries worldwide. ISO 9001 (QMS) standard was developed to provide organisations with an efficient tool for quality management, regardless of type, size, industry or location. ISO 9001 provides a quality management framework that organizations can use to ensure that the quality of their management system is consistent and sustainable.
Through its emphasis on process approach and risk-based thinking, the ISO 9001 certification facilitates a flexible and user-friendly QMS which also validates that the certified organization has taken due care to maintain high standards. An effective implementation of this standard reduces the chance of product faults/ failures, recalls or service shortcomings and ensures that your customers can buy them with confidence.

Outcome and Benefits:

Many enterprise buyers and retailers require their suppliers to be ISO 9001 certified in order to minimise their risk of purchasing a poor quality product or service. A business that achieves ISO 9001 certification can attain significant improvements in organisational efficiency by minimising waste and errors and increasing productivity.

The Certificate is valid for 3 years.
The time taken by an organization to achieve ISO 21001 certification would actually depend on the maturity and effectiveness of its EOMS implementation. The Stage 1 audit can be conducted immediately after the review and acceptance of application. Stage 2 audit will be planned mutually by COAE and the client depending on the nature of Stage 1 audit findings. Soon after the effective closures of the non-conformities raised by the auditors during Stage 2 audit, certification can be awarded to the educational organization.
