OUS proud to be Certified by ISO (International Organization for Standardization), their main Headquarters is in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO is the world’s largest developer of voluntary International Standards. OUS is certified. ISO is a Swiss-International Standard organization and is worldwide known.
In 1996 the BBT (State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation/Ministry of Education) recommended all schools/universities in Switzerland to apply for ISO Quality System, in 2001 a study case published by SECO (State Secretariat for Economic Affairs) proved that ISO certified schools/universities in Switzerland are better than other schools...
When you want to move forward in your business, it is much advisable that you do implement a Quality Management System (QMS). This will really reorganize your whole business and enterprise into a more worthy enterprise. In a real sense, Quality Management System (QMS) is one thing that will steer your business to better heights when you compare it to having a blueprint for the business. In a nutshell, you should really struggle to become ISO certified so as to get better outputs in your business enterprise.
Some of the benefits you are geared towards getting when you are ISO certified include well defining and having documented procedures that will lead to having better and consistent outputs together with having the quality of your product measured constantly. Others include; having procedures that will ensure there are corrective measures taken in the situation when there are defects thereby decreasing the rates of defects by catching the defects early enough thereby correcting them at lower costs; the documented procedures you have to make it easy for new employees to be assimilated into the system; the organization having the capacity to retain and increase its market share thereby increasing the sales and revenues and lastly the definition of the procedures will enable you to identify the current obsolete practices hence improving efficiency.
The chief reasons for registration include the urge and need to have an internal operation that’s very efficient as well as the need to have production costs minimized. The latter is achieved by having fewer non-conforming commodities thereby having minimal rework experiences. This leads to lower rejection of rated as well as streamlined processes together with fewer mistakes being made. ISO certification is also important as your organization will have access to other new markets that it would otherwise not have accessed without certification. It is today a common fact that several markets require the ISO 9001:2008 certification hence favoring those having that.
However, ISO 9001:2008 certification alone will not guarantee you success in the business field. There are some eight Quality Management Principles documented and enumerated for you to follow, failure of which you will fail to make an impact in business. These include the motivation of everyone to execute the goals of your business and not leaving it only to the quality assurance department. Others include; the commitment by the management of your business and must have the same rigor that the corporate objectives stipulate; engaging the whole organization to be committed to quality and engaged the same way they would be engaged in their own goals or their safety.
Others include the frequent auditing thereby taking the corrective and preventive measures sooner than later thereby giving real improvement. Lastly, it is the role of the management to assume the ownership of the business and not to leave this responsibility to any third party. This makes it possible for them to well understand both the organization and their team and make corrections where needed. All in all, ISO certification is one thing that has made business to have a say in their niches.
