Representatives of the independent certification body inspected the Quality Management System of The Taganrog Boiler-Making Works “Krasny Kotelshchik” (TKZ) for compliance to the requirements of international standard ISO 9001:2015.

Bases on the audit results, the decision was made to extend the validity period of ISO 9001:2015 certificate, issued earlier to TKZ. This became an obvious conformation of the fact that the Quality Management System (QMS) of the Works, covering all the key processes starting from design and purchase to finished product inspection, is active and effective.

The auditors gave their assessment not only to the compliance of the enterprise to the most reputable world standard, but also the maturity of the introduced approaches. A special attention was given to stability of the QMS administration processes including the internal audit system, high adaptability of the company to external changes and the involvement of employees into the continuous quality improvement process of the manufactured products.

– Our quality starts long before the production startup: it starts with documentation, approaches and firstly the responsibility of our team, – focuses the Quality Director of TKZ Lev Inyakov. –We do not limit ourselves to implementation of the standard requirements; we are developing on the system level in the attempt to be the first-choice company for our clients and partners such as the most leading power facilities supplying heat and electricity to whole regions.

Let us recall that ISO 9001:2015 is recognized all over the world. It serves as a guarantee of stable quality of products and services, confirms a company business reliability and enhances the trust of potential clients and partners. In total, ISO 9001:2015 is a kind of “gold standard” of quality management, which strengthens market competitiveness of a company and builds on its reputation.
