Quality:
Quality is a crucial aspect
of conducting successful
test programs and is a
deeply held value at
Qualtest. All calibrations
of our measurement and test
equipment are performed in
compliance with ANSI / NCSL
Z540-1-1994 and ISO 10012.
Our test laboratory is
registered to the ISO 9001
quality management standard
and accredited to the ISO /
IEC 17025 laboratory
competence standard; thus,
we must constantly meet
extremely high expectations
for achieving customer
satisfaction. Other
certifications include
package testing from the
International Safe Transit
Association ( ISTA), and
lightweight hammer shock
testing from the U.S. Navy. |

An effective QMS develops
accountability,
communication, and
management involvement. It
assists an organization in
implementing the right tools
to more effectively manage
business. Registration
provides an organization
with an outside pair of eyes
having an in-depth knowledge
of the management system.
This oversight ensures that
a company has effectively
implemented the management
system standard and is
utilizing it in the most
effective manner.
Third
party involvement also
provides customers with an
added level of comfort that
the service is delivered
with a commitment to
consistent quality and
expectations. Registration
is recognition of the
activities, effort, and
commitment to quality that
Qualtest has for the
services provided to our
customers. |
