ISO 9001 (2015) is the world’s most popular quality management system standard. It’s a framework to help companies manage their businesses effectively, so they can be operationally resilient, build long-term success and ensure customer satisfaction.

Richard Warburton, Managing Director for MTCS (UK) Ltd, said: “This is a great achievement for us, as I believe we are ahead of many other companies. The deadline for migrating to the new standard is the end of 2018, so we are well ahead. The new ISO standard 9001 (2015) will help MTCS (UK) Ltd to stand out from the crowd and help us to grow by giving us the competitive edge.

The new ISO standard is very much about managing risk, changes in our business environment and placing quality at the heart of what we do. 

“This is particularly poignant in the Oil & Gas industry at present and I’m proud of our team at MTCS, who have adapted considerably to change by downsizing and realigning in order to handle the downturn.”
