ISO 9001 Surveillance Audit Success – RAM Universal
Industry: Manufacturing & Supply Chain Services
Standard: ISO 9001
RAM Universal engaged AlineX to support ongoing management system maintenance and preparation for their ISO 9001 surveillance audit. The objective was to ensure continued compliance whilst identifying opportunities to strengthen quality management arrangements and business performance.
Support included management system reviews, internal auditing and preparation for external assessment. Through a practical and collaborative approach, the organisation was able to demonstrate continued conformity to ISO 9001 requirements and successfully maintain certification following the surveillance audit.
Hi, I'm Rob.
I founded AlineX after spending years working within industry and later as an external Certification Auditor. Throughout my career I've seen first-hand the difference that well-implemented management systems can make to organisations, but I've also seen how unnecessarily complex they can become when they're designed purely to achieve certification.
That's why AlineX focuses on practical solutions. I help organisations implement ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management systems that not only satisfy certification requirements but also support business objectives, reduce risk and improve performance.
With experience across manufacturing, quality, environmental management and Health & Safety, I understand the realities businesses face and the pressures managers operate under. My consultancy approach is built around making compliance straightforward, achievable and beneficial to the organisation.
You can learn more about my background, qualifications and experience on the About AlineX page.
