Contact Us
When looking for experts that can assist you in implementing ISO standards, you need to determine if the ones you are hiring can help you with ISO 9001, ISO 45001, and all the standards you are aiming for your company in Minnesota.
Fortunately, our team at IQC The ISO Pros of Minnesota is able to assist you with a wide range of ISO standards, including general and primary ones such as ISO 9001.
However, if you are looking for more specific and specialized ISOs for your organization, we have several certifications available to cover your needs. But, is it truly necessary to hire a company for your needs?
The journey of implementing a standard and getting certified is longer and more difficult than it seems. You have to identify your company’s needs and goals, focus on aligning them with the guidelines in the document, comply with the requirements, go through auditing, and get certified.
This always takes months and a lot of resources if you are unable to handle the task properly. But having us as your team of professionals to get this done will speed up the process and guarantee you achieve everything at once.
Besides offering ISO certifications, we have services that can cover all your needs: consultation, training, auditing, certifications, and implementation. If you are looking to perform an audit, our experts can perform any of the ones below:
- Outsourced Internal Auditing: it is focused on performing internal auditing but by a third-party—us—to determine any irregularities that could have been missed during the company’s own audit.
- Virtual Internal Audit: we are capable of performing internal audits remotely to ensure you do not have to deal with paperwork nor conduct face-to-face meetings.
- Second Party Audits: customers can request an external audit for a supplier to determine if it fulfills all mandatory requirements and is able to guarantee customer satisfaction.
- Supplier Audits: we will determine if the supplier is able to offer quality products and services to your company based on the requirements and standards it should comply with in order to do so.
- Compliance Audits: you can request an independent audit for your company to determine if you comply with all the mandatory and voluntary standards as well as legal regulations.
- Pre-assessment Audits: companies are able to request it in order to determine if they comply with the requirements of an ISO standard before going through official auditing.
- Supplier Evaluation: we will evaluate the supplier you are considering for your company and determine if it is a good option based on its performance, products, services, and aspects besides the regulations it has to fulfill.
- Documentation Audit/Desk Audit: consists of evaluating the work of an employee to determine if she or he is getting properly compensated for the job. If not, the company should take action to adjust the payment.
