What Does it Mean to be ISO 9000 Compliant?

by Feb 19, 2014

ISO 9000 CompliantOne thing that we talk about as a company is being ISO 9000 compliant and having products that are compliant as well. The basic thing you need to know about this random smattering of numbers and letters is that it means we have a certain set of standards that we need to meet on every project and in every aspect of our company. ISO 9000 has sets of rules and guidelines that are flexible so that any company may implement them, but they center around 8 particular principles.

  1. Customer Focus
  2. Good Leadership
  3. Involvement of People
  4. Process Approach
  5. Management System Approach
  6. Continual Improvement
  7. Factual Approach to Decision Making
  8. Supplier Relationships

You can see why these 8 principles would be important to any company, but especially to us. We know it is important to work with our customers and have good relationships internally, as well as with our suppliers. Everyone has to be involved in our processes to make them work. We take pride in being ISO 9000 certified because it means that we work as a team to bring you the best possible product through a process of factual decision-making and customer focus. Since we make custom cases, our product is heavily reliant on customer satisfaction.
