“We are very pleased to have achieved this certification and it is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of everyone here at Invensys Operations Management southern Africa,” said managing director Mike le Plastrier.
“Conforming with ISO 9001:2008 requirements means that we have to keep a highly visible audit trail for both internal and external audits,” said Nirusha Moodley, Invensys quality manager“. This includes strict control of documents and records while taking immediate corrective action to address issues of non-conformance with quality criteria. Having an effective quality assurance process means that we can take preventative action before potential problems develop into more serious issues. Effective feedback also means that we know what worked and what did not, which creates the right conditions for continuous and incremental improvement.”
