RAM Universal Ltd Achieve ISO 9001 Surveillance Audit Success

In May 2026, AlineX supported RAM Universal Ltd through their ISO 9001 Surveillance 1 audit with BSI, resulting in a successful outcome with zero findings raised.

Surveillance audits play a key role in ensuring that management systems continue to be effectively maintained following initial certification. For RAM Universal Ltd, the focus was on demonstrating that their Quality Management System remains embedded within day-to-day operations and continues to support the business as it evolves.

Throughout the process, the emphasis was on ensuring consistency across documented processes, maintaining clear ownership of responsibilities, and evidencing that key activities — such as internal audits, management review, and continual improvement — were being carried out effectively. This provided confidence that the system is not only compliant but actively adding value.

Preparation for the audit centred around ensuring the business could clearly demonstrate how the system is applied in practice. From leadership engagement through to operational delivery, the team showed strong alignment, resulting in a smooth audit process and a clean result.

Achieving a no-findings surveillance audit is a strong reflection of the ongoing effort and discipline within the business to maintain high standards and continuously improve.

Well done to Charlotte James and everyone involved at RAM Universal Ltd — a great result and a clear example of a system that is working as intended.
