ISO 3834 Company Certification

Topic : How to ensure quality control through proven certification procedures

 
Date: Tuesday, 21 April 2020
Time: 12PM
Presenter: SAIW Certification CEO – Herman Potgieter

For products to be free from serious problems in production and in service, it is necessary to provide controls, from the design phase, through to material selection, into manufacture and subsequent inspection. Poor design may create serious and costly difficulties in the workshop, on site, or in-service and incorrect material selection may result in problems, such as cracking in welded joints.

To ensure sound and effective manufacturing, management needs to understand and appreciate the sources of potential trouble and to implement appropriate procedures for their control. The Introduction of the  ISO 3834 Company Certification webinar will therefore provide an overview of this and explain how it complements ISO 9001 but can also be a standalone system.
