CONSULTANCY PE Handley Walker worked with and guided Jardine Technical Services to help it attain the standards required for its ISO 9002 certification.
Roger Johnson, PE Handley Walker's quality assurance services manager, worked with a JTS team from preliminary review to final certification.
Both sides contributed different expertise.
The preliminary review assessed JTS's existing practices and then determined what needed to be done to meet the ISO standards.
When this was done, a development plan was drawn up that included a requirement to train staff in the new system.
One of the main tasks when preparing for certification is producing documentation. For this aspect of the procedure, Mr Johnson wrote the quality manual and quality management procedures, to which JTS made contributions. JTS, meanwhile, wrote all the operations manuals, with Mr Johnson's help.
