It is with great pleasure that we announce that NEKK Europe Ltd have transitioned to ISO 9001:2015. But that's not all - not only did they make the transition successfully, they did so with zero non-conformances being raised.

NEKK Industrial Group

NEKK Europe Ltd is the sister company of NEKK Industrial Group, who are based in Chelyabinsk, Russia and have over 500 employees. Due to the strict regulations surrounding the supply of their high-quality copper (II) sulphate, it is essential to NEKK that they keep their QMS (Quality Management System) to a high standard and retain their ISO 9001 certification.

When NEKK Europe Ltd needed to transition their existing ISO 9001:2008 certified QMS to ISO 9001:2015, they wanted to minimise the amount of resources required to complete the transition while still realising all the benefits that come with ISO 9001:2015 certification. To help them achieve this, they chose to work with NPT Management Systems.

Anna Colman, NEKK Europe's Chief Executive Officer, has stated that she has absolute trust in our Principal Consultant Neil Peattie and his knowledge of ISO 9001, and that his ability to apply the standard in a simple manner in a rather complex industry is exceptional. NEKK Europe now plan to continue to use NPT Management Systems to help support and develop their QMS over the coming years.

Furthermore, we can also proudly announce that the highly experienced auditor from the UKAS-accredited certification body that conducted the transition audit stated that this was the most seamless audit they had ever conducted!

If you would like to transition to ISO 9001:2015 with ease, NPT Management Systems can help. Call today on 02380 659 867 or email enquiries@nptmanagementsystems.co.uk.

ISO 9001:2015

Last year, ISO rolled out a new version of the globally-renowned ISO 9001 standard for quality management systems. Dubbed ISO 9001:2015, this revision aimed to bring ISO 9001 into line with all the changes and developments that have taken place since the last revision in 2008.

ISO 9001:2015 was officially published in September 2015. Companies who achieved ISO 9001 accreditation under the old standard now have three years (from last September) to 'transition', i.e. migrate their processes and ensure that their quality management systems are compliant with this latest revision.

This may sound like a daunting task, particularly for large companies, but bringing your QMS (Quality Management System) up to date needn't be a nightmare. Here at NPT Management Systems, we have already helped numerous businesses with the ISO 9001:2015 transition, and we consistently succeed in getting the job done quickly, efficiently, and with minimal disruption to the company's operations.

Your experienced ISO 9001 consultant will:

  • Review your current QMS
  • Identify any areas that fall short of the updated requirements
  • Develop a plan for transition and help you to implement it
  • Assist you with getting re-certified to ISO 9001:2015 standards

If you would like our help with your company's ISO 9001:2015 transition, please don't hesitate to call 02380 659 867 or email enquiries@nptmanagementsystems.co.uk today.

Over the last 3 months, we at NPT Management Systems have been helping Southern Coating Contractors to implement a tailor-made quality management system that meets the stringent requirements of both ISO 9001 and the National Highways Sector Scheme 19A.

This week, we are pleased to announce that SCC have been recommended for ISO 9001 and National Highways Sector Scheme 19A Certification by a UKAS-accredited certification body, with zero non-conformances. This superb outcome is the result of an extremely tough multi-site audit: 4 days of certification body auditing with 3 different skilled auditors involved.

Here's what Tony Frost, Managing Director of Southern Coating Contractors, had to say after receiving the good news:

"We were recommended to contact Neil Peattie from NPT Management Systems to help with our needs for ISO 9001 and HSS19A Certification. Neil's ability to work with the team and to implement a system that we can all use is first-class. We now have a great system that will help to grow the business. I would recommend Neil Peattie as an ISO 9001 consultant."

What are National Highways Sector Schemes?

National Highways Sector Schemes (NHSS) are bespoke quality management systems for organisations that work on the UK road network. NHSS19A focuses on the use of industrial coatings to protect ferrous metals from corrosion. The standard was developed in conjunction with all parts of the highways industry and the United Kingdom Accreditation Service.

When a business achieves NHSS 19A certification, it assures clients that standards are being consistently applied. If you would like to learn more about the National Highways Sector Schemes or ISO 9001 certification, please contact NPT Management Systems today - we can help you to meet these standards and get certified first time.
