MVIS and Bartco UK pass 2021 annual ISO audit

MVIS and Bartco UK earn a successful audit of our ISO accreditations in quality (9001:2015), environmental management (14001:2015), and health & safety (45001:2018).

Issued by global certification body NQA, ISO accreditations enforce the practise of and adherence to respected business standards that help organisations perform better in a wide range of aspects.

For MVIS and Bartco UK, the standards of quality (9001:2015), environmental management (14001:2015) and health & safety (45001:2018) are of vital importance to our business, making adherence to these core aspects a highly aspirational goal for us. Together, the ISO accreditations furnish us with a full IMS (integrated management system), bringing our systems and processes into one complete framework.

Subject to an annual audit by NQA, we are tested into order to ensure that we are making full use of the IMS, applying our accreditation skills to all levels of our business, and it is with great pride that we can announce that we have passed our audit for 2021 with flying colours.

Anne Ashman, UK Group Commercial and Operations Director commented, “Having been recertified only last year, we are immensely pleased that our ISOs and the IMS plays such an important role in our day to day operations, especially during the pandemic. Deeply engraining the main areas of responsibility in our business, the IMS brings a number of important benefits to us and our customers.”

Our quality certification (9001:2015), assures clients that our products and services meet customer’s requirements. As a very important factor when it comes to equipment such as ours that promotes safety, clients look to MVIS and Bartco UK for reliable and effective products that have the ISO accreditation in quality behind them.

As an ITS solutions group, we work closely with the Highways and Traffic Management industries to deliver our solutions and products across the whole of the UK. Having such close ties to these industries, our environmental impact is of great importance to our Corporate Social Responsibility strategy. By working with a company that has obtained this accreditation, clients can rest assured that the company their required solutions came from is improving their sustainability through increasingly efficient use of resources and reduction of waste.

The health & safety accreditation, (45001:2018), completed our IMS in an area that doesn’t just demonstrate our commitment to our customers, but also to our staff. With its focus on employee safety and the safety of working environments, this standard is perhaps one of our most important, helping us conform to safety standards that keep our staff safe. Due to the nature of work undertaken by many of our team across highways, vehicle management, crowd safety and construction, the safety of our staff and others is paramount in transporting and deploying our units. Staff, customers and even pedestrians can all be safe in the knowledge that our products have been manufactured and deployed with safety in mind.

Anne adds, “It is vital that the whole team understands the importance of working to all 3 standards and the impact it has on the group’s continual growth. The successful audit demonstrates that we are constantly aiming higher on a service and operations level to ensure our customers always get a quality service from MVIS and Bartco UK”.
