Certification

Many companies want system certifications to enable them to do business in certain markets or expand opportunities. These standards include for example ISO 9001:2000, ISO/TS 16949, AS 9100, ISO 13485, TL 9000 and others.

4aBetterBusiness provides clients with the means to achieve breakthrough performance for their business - and certification as a by-product of their increased success.

A key realization for companies is that standards such as those listed above are the means to assess a system, but THEY ARE NOT THE SYSTEM ITSELF. This is quite different from the typical product standard, which may be very specific about procedures and data. In contrast, the system standards described above describe objectives your system must meet. The system standards do not prescribe in detail how you must meet those objectives.

Organizations are often encouraged to start with a "gap analysis." This is a particularly perilous way to start, that often leads to bureaucracy, frustration and added operating cost. Click here to download a short white paper that explains why.

Our clients achieve breakthrough performance improvement with management and employee buy-in and ownership of the results, and have achieved 100% first-attempt certification in as short as a few months.
