Certification Services #4174803

The standard is intended for the quality management system assessments and registrations to iso 9001. The standards apply uniformly to organizations of any size or description.
standards help ensure that everyone no matter where in the world they are

speaking the same business language. Many companies require their suppliers to become registered to iso 9001 and because of this, registered companies find that their market opportunities have increased.

in addition, a company's compliance with iso 9001 insures that it has a sound quality management system, and that's good business. Registered companies have had dramatic reductions in customer complaints, significant reductions in operating costs and increased demand for their products and services. Many industrial companies require registration by their own suppliers.

what are the requirements of iso 9001?
the iso 9001 standard is divided up into 5 different sections:
quality management system
resource management
product realization
measurement analysis & improvement
management responsibility

The directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment 2002/95/ec, commonly referred to as the restriction of hazardous substances directive or rohs) was adopted in february 2003 by the european union. The rohs directive took effect on 1 july 2006, and is required to be enforced and become law in each member state. This directive restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of various types of electronic and electrical equipment

rohs helps reduce damage to people and the environment in third-world countries where much of today's "high-tech trash" ends up. The use of lead-free solders and components has provided immediate health benefits to electronics industry workers in prototype and manufacturing operations. Contact with solder paste no longer represents the same health-hazard it did before.

Iso 13485:2003, based on the iso 9001:2000 certification process model, suggests that the application and management of a system of processes is an effective way to ensure good quality management. All requirements of this international
standard are specific to organizations providing medical devices, regardless of the type or size of the organization.
the standard strongly infers that clients should consider using iso 9000:2000 to ensure understanding of the process model, definitions and other items of concern, too
iso 13485 certification benefits

the benefits of an iso 13485:2003 certification compliant quality management system to the thousands of companies worldwide include:
1. recognition by regulators around the world of iso 13485:2003 as a good basis for addressing medical device design and manufacturing regulatory requirements
2. controlled consistency of manufactured products
3. managed productivity and efficiency, controlling costs
4. competitive advantage and increased marketing and sales opportunities.
5. improved customer perception of the organizations image, culture and performance.
improved communications, morale and job satisfaction staff understand what is expected of them and each other.

Environmental aspects
iso 14001 implementation is primarily about identifying organizations aspects that affect the invironment, evaluating its level of impact in the environment and making planned efforts to continually reduce the level of impact.

identifying the environmental aspects of an organizations activities, products and services, and determining their relative significance, are important elements of implementing an environment management system (ems) or conducting environmental performance evaluation (epe) in an organization. Iso 14001, iso 14004 and iso 14031 provide guidance on identifying significant environmental aspects.
Iso 14040 states in its introduction: life cycle assessment (lca) is a technique for assessing the environmental aspects and potential impacts associated (with products and services). Lca can assist in identifying opportunities to improve the environmental aspects of (products and services) at various points in their life cycle.

implementing iso 14001 requires preparing ems manual and documenting procedures required by the standard. Isohelpline documentation do-it-yourself kit helps to make these documents in minutes instead of months. Our ready to use manuals require minimum changes and are easy to integrate with existing iso 9001 : 2008 procedures. You can easily extend them to ohsas 18001 occupational health and safety assurance system manuals and procedures.

It is applicable to all organizations, regardless of size, which are involved in any aspect of the food chain and want to implement systems that consistently provide safe products. The means of meeting any requirements of iso 22000 can be accomplished through the use of internal and/or external resources.

Information is the key to growth and success of an organization. It is an important asset, valuable to an organization and hence needs to be suitably protected. Organizations have realized the importance of security and that it is vital to keep confidential business information secure. Sensitive and confidential information need to be protected in all ways. A certified information security management system compliant to international standard demonstrates that information is suitably protected. Iso has developed iso27001 standard in order to overcome the information security shortcomings in organizations.

an information security management system identifies and reduces critical security risks of organizations informational assets and makes a platform to protect those assets. It sets standard for handling the confidentiality, integrity and availability of informational assets.

iso 22000 will bring your business the following benefits:
iso 22000 will give you a comprehensive, systematic and proactive approach to identifying food safety hazards and implementing effective control measures
the standard will make it easier for you to apply the hazard analysis and critical control points (haccp) principles
comply with current food safety standards across different continents
iso 22000 will help to document all techniques, methods and procedures in a thoroughly systematic way
increase traceability, efficiency and resourcefulness in the food chain
this standard will enable you to participate in large scale food chains around the world
ensure that your supply chain is secure to meet growing food requirements

The ce mark, which is affixed to a product or its packaging, is considered proof that a product has met the requirements of the harmonized european standard, or directive. The european commission, which administers the program, describes the ce mark as a passport for goods to be sold freely within the internal european market.

the first step to compliance is determining which directives apply to the product. A product may be regulated by more than one directive. The ce mark does not disclose which directive(s) or standards apply to the product, nor will it indicate the method of conformity assessment used to bring the product into compliance. This information is provided by other accompanying documents, such as the declaration of conformity. The manufacturer or the authorized representative affixes the ce marking to the product.

the ce marking is not a product certification. In fact it is not equivalent to a mark of product quality issued by a certification body, but it is a label that attests that the product is conforming to the applicable european legislation and therefore it can freely circulate inside the european union. The truthfulness of the data furnished with the ce marking and the input of the product on the market are always and only the responsibility of the producer.
in order to be able to affix the ce marking on a product it is necessary that some activities are developed: initial type testing, arrangement and start-up of a production control, compilation of the declaration of conformity and the relative ce label.
benefits of ce marking
stick to current eu guidelines
reduce liability for your company with documented safety standards
improve the quality and safety of your products
take advantage of short audit times and our extensive experience

Many organizations are implementing an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSAS) as part of their risk management strategy to address changing legislation and protect their workforce.

Improvement of working conditions for workers
Increasing of satisfaction and loyalty of workers
Increasing of organisation ethics
Increase control and reduction of hazards through the setting of objectives, targets and evolved responsibility
