P & Q gained ISO 9001 : 1994 certification from
Quality Management Systems
International plc on 17 September 1998. This involved an
appraisal of P & Q's existing Quality Assurance practices and procedures,
and resulted in the creation of Quality Assurance and Quality
Procedure Manuals.
Twice-yearly Internal Audits are carried out to ensure that
the documented Procedures and their associated Working
Instructions are being followed.
Regular Management Review Meetings are also held to
discuss quality-related matters, so that deficiencies can
be highlighted and the necessary remedial action implemented.
The Procedures themselves may also be reviewed and modified
appropriately, both to reflect current practice and to
tighten up Procedures and/or Working Instructions where
deficiencies have been discovered. The Quality Assurance and
Quality Procedure Manuals are currently being revised to conform
with BS EN ISO 9001 : 2000.
An External Audit is carried out annually by Quality Management Systems
International plc.
