What does it mean to help companies accomplish their goals with international standards for excellence and quality?
It means deliberate discussions, dedicated brainstorming sessions, and a knowledge base that can contemplate the ways that these standards have been designed and adopted. It also means having a philosophy of contemplation. In other words, assigning importance to the right things.
At Barile Consulting, we take a look at some of the best international standards for increasing productivity and efficiencies for companies that need this kind of oversight and assistance.
Quality Management
Our services in the realm of ISO 9001 involve looking at this international quality standard for quality management, and thinking about how that impacts an individual company’s operations.
There are many ways in which a quality management paradigm changes things for business operations and business processes. Some of that involves workplace and workforce efficiency. Some of it will ultimately have an impact on product development. For a service company, it can be instructive in fine-tuning the service model. Many of these components can also be helpful in analyzing the accounting structure of the firm itself, and determining where that business goes in the future.
ISO 13485 and More
This standard addresses diverse initiatives on design, environmental impact and regulatory context, just to name a few of the things that matter to companies that are trying to optimize their ops. It’s another facet of how companies adopt best practices to spur innovation and boost productivity and profit. Looking at ISO 13485 is not a fool’s errand – it can provide real ROI easily, and propel a company toward stardom.
One tip here is to focus on human competence – to integrate these standards in ways that complement the best planning by frontline stakeholders and others involved in the company’s success.
To that end, getting buy-in is incredibly important. If there is an initiative that is built the right way, but fails to achieve the right buy-in, it will also not achieve left off – and its fruits won’t ever be realized by the company. In others words, it will die on the vine. Ok, enough with the plant allegories. The bottom line is that these types of planning supercharge businesses in any industry or market, and you can take that to the bank.
