The Business is accredited to Investors In People, Det Norsk Veritas ISRS Level 6 and Lloyds Register QS9000.

The visit will cover three aspects of the business management process:
· Use of the EFQM Excellence Model as a review mechanism to direct learning and improvement activities

Key to all of the above best practice activity is the belief by management that to achieve continual improvement, satisfy clients and make money, companies need to employ highly motivated and competent people.
