In early April, CPV Manufacturing received ISO 9001:2015 certification for their quality management system in the design and manufacture of high-pressure valves and fittings.
The ISO 9001:2015 certification further expands CPV’s commitment to quality management and its dedication to having the highest standards in the industry. It’s evidence that the company has established a quality management system that is in conformance with the International Quality System Standard.
“We’re proud to be able to say that we’ve earned this certification,” said David London, President. “It proves to the world that we are 100% committed to the quality of our products and to customer satisfaction on a global scale.”
The nine-month certification process involved all employees and management at all levels, going beyond the quality control team to the entire organization. All staff, from the top of the organization down, must show that they know and understand their responsibilities for the certification to be granted. Mandatory ongoing audits serve to ensure that the quality management system is being employed effectively.
ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is an independent, non-governmental organization consisting of 161 countries. It develops quality management standards that are used worldwide, playing an important role in international trade. ISO 9001:2015 certification is voluntary and is the only ISO Quality Management Standard for which companies can be certified. It encompasses a strong customer focus, the involvement of all personnel, and the actual processes and systems.
