BSRIA delighted to announce appointment of Dr Arnold Teekaram as corporate quality assurance manager

One of Arnold’s main tasks will be to extend the scope of BSRIA’s QA system at the corporate level to include all aspects of the business under ISO 9001. BSRIA will continue to maintain UKAS accreditation under 17025 to cover technical services.

  3. Assist with compliance of any relevant statutory and regulatory requirements.
Arnold said: “Quality is the core of BSRIA’s activities. The implementation of ISO 9001 will not only consolidate our procedures across all departments, but we also hope that it will also give our clients the confidence that the quality of the work we provide is of the highest standard, meets their requirements and is delivered on time. Customer feedback is particularly important.  We will continue to monitor customer feedback to identify where improvements can be made in the services we provide and to bring successful attributes to the attention of other business areas so that where appropriate, they can be replicated.”
