ISO 9001

Meeting the requirements of the ISO 9001 standard is the foundation for the certification of an organization/business. ISO 9001 is an internationally recognized standard, which describes a Quality Management System model for the services and products offered by an organization. It is based on a set of quality principles that small or large organizations/companies can apply, regardless of the business sector they operate in. When a business focuses on and is committed to quality, it brings qualitative dimension to its customers (consumers) and positive results to society. Consequently, it undoubtedly gains the recognition and trust of its customers. AXIA CERT, an independent Certification Body, can grant the corresponding certificate. Of course, it is necessary for the organization/business to comply with the requirements of the standard. A company, which complies with the requirements of the standard, is able to receive a Quality Management Certificate, after a successful assessment by the Independent Certification Body AXIA CERT. The business strengthens the trust of its customers and gains a strong advantage over competitors.

The ISO 9001 standard is the most popular standard, in both the organizations/businesses and their stakeholders such as customers and partners. It is being applied for over 25 years and is preferred, almost exclusively, by organizations/businesses that wish to demonstrate their commitment to quality, their dedication to customer satisfaction and their compliance to legislation. This 2015 edition of the standard gives directions to the organizations for the planning of their activities and the processes they perform. It also requires that the organizations take into account how their processes and activities interact with each other. Each process can be the input of another, and its output can be the input of a succeeding process.
