Engineering and Manufacturing
The construction sector is one of the busiest and most complex industries on the planet, the legislation and regulations are changing daily and for good reasons, not only for health and safety purposes but also environmental improvements.
There are not many sectors that expect ISO Certification as a minimum entry, construction is one of them. Without having ISO Certification many construction companies are left in the waiting and will be left with the small jobs that are never going to make you a huge success.
Construction expands from the small domestic works such as electricians and gas engineers through to large multi billion developments such as Heathrow airport or HS2. No matter where you are in the food chain, you are vitally important to the success of the project and having ISO Certification is one tool to help you get there.
The construction sector is one of the largest and comprises small contractors, architects and engineers, civil engineers, domestic builders and large housebuilders. The ISO standards apply to all of the different organizations in this industry and can bring many benefits.
Benefits of ISO Certification for Construction Organisations:
- Improved subcontractor management
- Less snags and warranty claims
- Less waste generation and cost reductions
- Reduced accidents and incidents
- Quicker turnaround of works
- Higher quality and customer satisfaction
- Compliance with industry and regulatory requirements
- Greater efficiencies within your organization
In 2015, the core ISO standards all aligned and now follow Annex SL which sets out a high level clause structure for all standards to follow. This makes it easier to integrate different management systems into one core set of policies and procedures, reducing documentation and allowing for multiple standards to be assessed at the same time.
