Flatirons Solutions Receives New ISO 9001:2015 Certification for its Boulder Headquarters
October 17, 2018
BOULDER, Colo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Flatirons Solutions® is pleased to announce that the organization’s
Boulder headquarters has achieved certification to the new ISO 9001:2015
Quality Management System (QMS) standard, reflecting the organization’s
long-term commitment to quality, transparency, and customer
satisfaction. The QMS is implemented and adhered to globally,
streamlining policies and procedures, and helps Flatirons realize the
benefits of an ISO 9001-based system across all of its subsidiaries and
office locations.
The certification is valid for three years and is provided by DNV
GL – Business Assurance.
ISO 9001 is the most widely used quality management standard, and has
recently undergone a periodic update to better reflect modern business
challenges. Last modified in 2008, the new 2015 version of ISO 9001 is
the result of input from business and technical experts around the
world. The program requires greater involvement of senior management,
broader understanding of supply chains, and more focus on stakeholder
(not just customer) expectations.
“We’re proud of our institutional focus on quality, and recognize that
ISO 9001 certification is a crucial part of our business,” said Stéphane
Labadie, Chief Operations Officer at Flatirons Solutions. “Our support
for ISO 9001:2015 certification is a tangible demonstration of our
quality commitment to customers, partners, and our teammates.”
All organizations certified to the previous version of ISO 9001 were
required to transition to the new version by September 2018 or risk
losing their certification. Flatirons had previously been certified to
the ISO 9001:2008 standard.
“We are encouraging people to move quickly because the deadline is fast
approaching and there are finite resources for conducting certification
audits,” says Gary Davis, President for DNV GL Business Assurance USA,
Inc. “If you are being certified for the first time, the process will
automatically employ the new 2015 version of the standard.”
