Have you ever tried to convince your senior management that investing in something (be it anything) is a worthwhile investment? The presentation is generally awkward as you try to enumerate the many benefits of your suggestion to a group of people with skeptical looks on their faces, the whole effort will seem like a waste. Consider pitching the idea for hiring a quality management consultancy to help you implement ISO 9001 compliant systems and standards in your facility – your management will definitely jump at the idea and grab it with both hands!

Hiring an ISO 9001 consultancy is an expense, of course! But it is one expense that will get you $1000 worth of savings for every $100 that your facility spends. The manufacturing systems and processes in your facility will definitely see a marked improvement. The image of the business will receive an upgrade like never before. The facility’s credibility and market reputation will receive a boost. And customers will get an assurance of receiving high quality products from you.

By looking at the overall process interactions through the process approach of ISO 9001, you will be able to more easily find improvements in efficiency and cost savings. This is done through eliminating the waste that can occur when processes are maintained without a view of the inefficiencies that can arise during process handoff. The better process flow can also be used to drive efficiencies towards fewer errors and resulting reworks, which can improve cost savings. The benefits are therefore, many!
