ISO 9001 helps companies ensure that their processes are efficient, consistent, and meet customer requirements. It involves implementing standardised procedures and controls to monitor and improve the quality of products throughout the production cycle.

Manufacturing companies should adopt an ISO 9001 Quality Management System (QMS) for a variety of reasons. ISO 9001 is not only a recognised standard in the United Kingdom but is also an internationally recognised system for quality management, and its adoption can provide numerous benefits to a manufacturing company, such as improved quality, increased efficiency, and enhanced customer satisfaction. Combining these benefits usually leads to access to more markets and hence sales of a company’s products and/or services.
