What is ISO 9001 ?
ISO 9001:2015 is the globally recognised standard for building and maintaining a robust Quality Management System (QMS). It provides a structured framework that helps organisations embed quality into every aspect of their operations through clear processes, strong leadership, and data-driven decision-making.
Achieving ISO 9001 certification signals more than compliance – it reflects a genuine commitment to delivering consistent, high-quality outcomes, enhancing customer satisfaction, and driving operational excellence.
With over 1.26 million certified organisations across more than 180 countries, ISO 9001 remains the most widely adopted quality standard worldwide.
