I-Bus today announces that it has successfully passed the audit to the ISO 9001:2000 with design standards without any non-conformances and as a result is being processed for certification.

The ISO 9001:2000 refers to a set of standards by ISO or the International Organization for Standardization that guarantees quality management processes for any organization worldwide.

As a reputable company, I-Bus doesn't just test when it has to; it works with engineering experts to carry out research, development, production, testing and quality control at any level.

I-Bus received its initial ISO9001 registration in 1995 after an audit of its manufacturing unit, quality and process control procedures. Successive re-audits took place these last years and in 2002 I-Bus decided to build a brand new system to upgrade the registration to the requirements of ISO9001:2000.

In summary a huge amount of work has been required in re-writing and implementing a completely new system over the last few months to acheive the new certification. "We had to not only achieve the normal standard of passing a regular inspection but implement and run a completely new system" says John Weller, Managing Director.
