Working closely with your team, we can successful support ‘quality’ programmes throughout the manufacturing or service process delivering positive impacts on the bottom line and if your company has an objective to do so, also develop and implement ISO9001:2015 managements systems to achieve UKAS recognised certification.
Quality Matters
In an increasingly competitive market, effective management of quality is ever more important to clients but also critical in promoting achievement of your goal, profit.
Whilst there is a cost involved, we operate on the basis of fixed fees which are very realistic. We adopt a clear philosophy that all such projects, by their very nature, should be much more than just self-funding.
Colour Management
Consistency and conformity in colour are a prerequisite for professional print buyers and the introduction of ISO12647-2 provided a reference point for colour quality management. Attaining the ISO12647-2 certification through a UKAS accredited certification body provides companies with the ability to claim they have a colour quality production management system and are capable of printing to ISO 12647-2 standards.
With extensive relevant experience, Ethos Consultancy works with companies to develop colour quality management systems in compliance with ISO12647-2. In addition to meeting the standard, opportunity exists to increase colour quality, increase production efficiency and gain or retain business.
Business Continuity Management
‘Continuity’ is essential to key stakeholders including clients who you of course wish to retain in all circumstances. Having an effective Business Continuity plan therefore makes total sense – not having one, doesn’t! However, simple risk assessment or scenario based plans are inadequate.
Following best practice outlined in ISO 22301, we can support your organisation in a practical and very effective way to complete all the steps essential to the subsequent development of an effective plan that addresses preventative as well as reactive measures along with monitoring, testing and evaluation processes. More than 90% of organisations with an effective plan who experienced major disruption confirmed their plan had a positive impact upon recovery – we spend £1000’s insuring but prevention and effective recovery strategies provide increased confidence of recovery.
Information Security Management
For many organisations, information is their most valuable asset. By becoming ISO 27001 certified you are not only protecting your organisation by putting an Information Security Management System in place, you are also demonstrating to stakeholders and customers that you have been independently assessed and verified.
By evaluating the risks for information loss within your organization, we will work with your team to develop risk treatment plans and the extensive control measures essential for you to meet the requirements of ISO 27001 and if your objective is to do so, to attain certification through an external audit, to UKAS accredited certification body standards.
British Retail Consortium (BRC) Global Packaging Standard
Adopted by major retailers and packaging businesses around the world, certification to the BRC Global Packaging and Packaging Materials standard ensures product quality, product safety and product legality are maintained by producers of packaging products and materials, providing assurance to the supply chain, customers and consumers alike.
Working with your team, we can quickly and effectively develop and implement all requirements set out by the standard, providing all training where necessary. Like all other support areas we are able to provide ongoing resources and maintenance programmes.
