ISO 9001: 2015 Integrated Management System

The ISO 9001 sets out the criteria for a quality management system. It is based on a number of quality management principles, including a strong customer focus, the motivation and implication of top management, the process approach and continual improvement. Using ISO 9001 helps companies ensure that customers receive consistent, good quality products and services, and provides external verification that the processes a company has in place enables it to operate to recognised international best practice standards.

Through a programme of internal audits Rapid achieved a score of 100% on transition to ISO 9001:2015. At the time of the certification in 2018 MD James Bates said: “This represents a fantastic achievement by everyone in the company. ISO 9001:2015 is a very high bar for any organisation, and means that our internal procedures, from risk assessment to regulatory compliance, meet the world’s most recognised QMS.”
