Oxford, UK P2i Ltd has achieved BS EN ISO 9001:2000 accreditation for the design and manufacture of plasma polymerised coatings. In order to attain the internationally recognised standard, P2i Ltd implemented a robust quality management system to ensure its customers receive the highest standards of service. This includes detailed processes for continual improvement of P2i’s quality systems and assurance of the company’s conformity to future regulatory requirements.

“Attaining BS EN ISO 9001:2000 will bring numerous advantages for us, not least in assuring prospective customers that we are delivering a high quality product which has been independently verified,” explains P2i’s Business Development Director, Dr Ian Robins. “With standard processes now being followed throughout the business and our drive for continuous improvement we are ensuring that P2i continues to deliver the highest possible levels of customer satisfaction.  In a growing business operating in a technologically challenging environment, the drive for quality can often be overlooked and the umbrella of ISO9001:2000 ensures that P2i does not fall into this trap,” adds
Dr Robins.

BS EN ISO 9001:2000 identifies eight quality management principles that can be used by P2i Ltd’s workforce and senior managers to improve the company’s performance including such elements as customer focus, leadership, supplier relationships and people involvement with the aim of creating a more effective approach to managing the organisation.
