Franchise consultancy firm, FC Business Solutions has recently attained the ISO9001:2008 Quality Management Systems Accreditation, a globally recognised management system standard.

The company achieved the accreditation, which is used by more than one million companies and organisations worldwide, after ISO officials conducted a comprehensive internal review of the business.

According to the ISO website, ISO9001:2008 is based on a number of quality management principles.

These include:

  • A strong customer focus
  • The motivation and implication of top management
  • The process approach
  • Continual improvement

“The process of becoming ISO9001:2008 accredited enabled us to take a close look at our internal systems, and review them to ensure they are optimised towards ensuring the best possible services and solutions are provided to our clients,” said Corina Vuvic, FC Business Solutions director.

“It has also enabled us to establish processes for continuous improvement.”

She added many clients share their stories of working with inexperienced consultants with her team, which is why the accreditation is so important – it proves FC Business Solutions seeks to both upskill and support its clients day in, day out.

“For us, the ISO9001:2008 accreditation is important to demonstrate to our existing clients, and any future clients, that we are committed in ensuring that our business has processes in place that will continue to provide them with the best services and client solutions now and well into the future.”
