About<\/h1>\n

Based in Leeds, West Yorkshire, we are a national collective of experienced and qualified experts in management systems, focusing primarily on ISO standards based systems.<\/h4>\n

Who Are We?<\/h2>\n

We have helped organisations of all sizes obtain and retain certification to a wide range of standards, including ISO 9001 (quality management systems), ISO 14001 (environmental management systems), ISO 45001 (health and safety management systems) and many others such as ISO 13485 (medical devices), ISO 17020, procedures for testing bodies and 17025 laboratory management \u2013 both of which are audited by UKAS, the people who supervise the companies that certify most other standards. UKAS accredited standards.<\/p>\n

We operate nationally and have worked with organisations as diverse as one of the world’s largest project management consultancies to one person small and medium sized enterprises [\u201cSME’s”], in the UK, The Netherlands, Gabon and in the United Arab Emirates, many of whom continue to use our services.<\/p>\n

Our Approach<\/h2>\n

Our approach is different. Typically people will give you a “template” system and tell you to put your name on the top of it. You have to work to it, not the other way around. Our philosophy and approach have been developed by in partnership with a business process-re-engineering consultancy, called Episode\u2019s Growth Planning Process.<\/p>\n

It has three aims:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. ensure you are successfully ISO certified (if that is what you want)<\/li>\n
  2. build a simple and effective management system unique to you, shaped by our experience and your
    knowledge of your organisation<\/li>\n
  3. empower you to grow the organisation without the need for external help.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \tWe are able to give you the tools to structure your organisation the way you want it. We are not for one
    second saying we are business change experts: rather, we give you the framework to do that yourselves. You know your organisation best.<\/p>\n

    Standards we work on<\/h2>\n

    We have worked on a wide range of systems based on ISO and other standards, and the list continues to grow.<\/p>\n
