To maintain AEM’s commitment to continuous improvement and to provide the highest level of service to their customers, AEM owner Bob Sires chose to implement ISO 9001:2015 by obtaining an external certification to prove the quality of their products and AEM’s commitment to their customers.
The University of West Florida/FloridaMakes Business Advisor at the Northwest Florida Manufacturers Council worked with AEM to identify an experienced consultant to guide them in the implementation of ISO 9001:2015. Over four months, AEM’s quality and management teams were guided through a review of their quality, production, customer service, purchasing, receiving, supplier evaluations and human resources procedures to identify and thoroughly document key processes for their Quality Management System. During the rigorous three-day certification audit, AEM’s team surpassed all requirements and achieved ISO Certification, receiving zero discrepancies.
