ISO9001:2015 For Quality
Pharmacy Medical have been awarded ISO9001
As part of our continued development and looking towards the future, here at Pharmacy Medical we have been spending the past few months obtaining the ISO9001:2015 standard for quality.
ISO 9001 is the internationally recognised standard for managing business quality. ISO 9001 is based on a number of principles that go hand in hand with good business practice. These include focusing on customers, involving all people that affect your business, doing things systematically and continuously looking for ways to improve.
Obtaining the Standard
The process of obtaining this standard has been relatively straightforward. We hoped to think that our day to day processes have been sufficient for us to not have to implement much further or modify processed to fall in line with the requirements. And for the most part this was the case.
Using 3rd party assistance, we were able to address our processes etc prior to going for certification, making the process seamless. Dave Daniels was very helpful in getting the business ready for inspection by Approachable Certification. Our second inspection was held on the 7th July 2020 and we had been passed within a couple of days, receiving our certification today (15th July 2020).
Going Forward
This is something we are very proud of here at Pharmacy Medical. Maintaining the standard will now be something we have to manage on a daily basis, however the new working practices we have implemented will make this simple.
What this means for our customers
The purpose of this standard is to allow us as a company to monitor quality. Both quality of our service and quality of our products. It now means that more than ever, the quality of the products ordered from Pharmacy Medical will be of the highest standard. Our full traceability programme means we now know who carried out all of the manufacturing, assembly and shipping actions on all of the products manufactured by us at Pharmacy Medical.
Pharmacy Medical is a trading name of HEC Showman limited whos name the certification is in.
