engcon holds both environmental and quality certification

Demands on companies are constantly growing. Becoming certified and introducing environmental and quality systems, companies ensure that things are done right by documenting existing working procedures and developing new suggestions for improvement from these.

Certification is an ongoing process, with lots of audits which ensure that companies are remaining within set boundaries. This is a major undertaking, but one which involves many positive aspects:

• Greater credibility
• A stronger brand
• Facilitation of market access
• Greater efficiency
• Simpler marketing communications

ISO 9001:2015 is a new version of the internationally renowned standard for quality systems. This standard allows quality issues to be measured, monitored and checked. This benefits customers in the long run, which is of course what the programme is meant to do. Moreover, good quality initiatives make work and information exchange within the company more seamless and efficient. Nowadays ISO 9001 is a competitive tool which no company of the future can ignore.

To obtain a certificate in accordance with ISO 9001, the company needs to demonstrate that it has a well thought out business system which is also documented in accordance with the standard and consistent with what actually happens. engcon was certified by Bureau Veritas Certification, and in order to retain this certificate randomly selected parts of the company are audited at regular reviews.
