Quality Assurance
We operate an internally monitored quality assurance which has served us through the numerous global events we have serviced. We have a quality assurance programme that lays down a foundation for the processes and control procedures that we adopt during everyday operations.
Our current procedures for systems of quality are reviewed at regular management meetings throughout the year and are documented and revised accordingly.
ISO 9001:2000
We have achieved and are certified to the ISO 9001: 2000 standard and operate all our procedures to the recognised standard of quality, for which we are rigorously audited by an independent auditor on an annual basis.
We have a computerised bespoke programme to cover all areas from estimating, art working, production, and delivery. This has a built in quality assurance of goods produced and a logistics department to cover delivery of contracts which are checked on a regular basis and any non-conformity can be addressed immediately.
All of our data, documents and records are stored electronically and password protected on a secure server and backed up on a daily basis and stored in line with the Data Protection Act 1998. We do not pass on, sell or distribute any data that we may hold on a client or customer.
Environment
Our approach to the environment is very serious and stronger than ever as we remain committed to sustain and maintain long term goals in reducing, recycling and reusing of materials and energy.
We understand that the decisions we make and methods in which we operate our business can have various impacts on our environment, both positive and negative
ISO 14001
We have successfully achieved the internationally recognised standard of ISO 14001 status to further enhance our commitment to the environment and providing us with a useful management system to control, monitor and manage all aspects of our activities and products.
Therefore, our clients can be assured that they would be buying goods and services from a competent company with environmental awareness, procedures and practices being put into place for continued sustainability and reduction of it's impact on the environment.
