NDC Technologies, a leading global provider of precision measurement and control solutions, proudly announces its quality management system (QMS) has been recertified for ISO 9001:2008 by DNV-GL business assurance for the design, manufacture, and service of continuous process measurement and control equipment. This recertification applies to all of NDC’s manufacturing facilities, including its headquarters in Irwindale, California and facilities in Maldon, UK, and Dayton, Ohio.
“DNV-GL is a world-class ISO 9001 certification body,” says Andy Hall, quality and compliance director at NDC. “With their help, our organization has now achieved a higher standard of QMS certification. As our business and customer base continues to grow, this certification not only differentiates us from other measurement solution providers but demonstrates our on-going commitment to continuous quality improvement and maintaining the highest levels of customer satisfaction.”
ISO 9001:2008 certification is based on quality management principles including strong customer focus, leadership and motivation of upper management, the process approach, and continual improvement and review. Certification to this standard requires an accredited third-party auditing organization to thoroughly review the company’s internal quality management system processes, to ensure it is capable of consistently delivering products and services that meet customers’ needs and expectations.
The ISO QMS standard has been the basis for NDC’s internal processes for a number of years. NDC Technologies was formed in 2014 as a merger between NDC Infrared Engineering and Beta LaserMike (both part of the Spectris plc family of companies and recognized global leaders in non-contact measurement and control solutions). Prior to the merger, both companies were ISO certified and managed their internal processes in accordance with strict ISO and in-house quality management standards.
