Once all these requirements
are in place and each element of the ISO 9001 standard has
been implemented, an external audit can be conducted.
The
external audit should be carried out by an independent
party such as Velosi who is, in turn, accredited by RvA in
accordance with international guidelines for certification
body accreditation International Accreditation Forum. Any
system accredited by an unaccredited company does not give
the same confidence as one that is fully accredited.
Velosi
will initially carry out a review of the quality manuals
and procedures. This process involves looking at the company’s
evaluation of the written quality system and ascertains
if targets set for the management programmes are measurable
and achievable. This is followed, at a later date, by an
on-site audit of the complete system to ensure that working
practices observe the procedures and stated objectives,
and that appropriate records are kept.
After a successful
audit, a certificate of registration to ISO 9001 will
be issued. There will then be surveillance visits (usually
once or twice a year dependent on the size of your company)
by the certification body to ensure that the system is implemented
on a continuous basis.
Velosi has a track record for excellent
customer satisfaction for its certification services. Whether
your company is a large multinational or a small local business,
the stripping back on unnecessary bureaucracy and a personal
approach means you will receive the same level of commitment
and service.
Velosi Auditors have gained their experience
in industry and are selected on their knowledge of the
industry sector, so that they are able to understand your
business fully. This ensures the audit process produces meaningful
results and improvements to the business process.
Velosi is
accredited by the Dutch Accreditation Council RvA (Raad
Voor Accreditatie), whose headquarters are in Holland, in
accordance with international guidelines for certification
body accreditation the International Accreditation Forum.
The RVA gauged Velosi against highly accepted and rigorous
global standards, which included them witnessing the certification
random audits. RVA’s accreditation of Velosi
signifies its confidence in the system developed
by Velosi that complies with international accreditation
requirements for certification bodies i.e. Guide 62.
