West Chicago, IL

Congratulations to client American Standard Circuits, who have received their 3-year recertification to AS9100D & ISO 9001: 2015 from certifying body Intertek. The company continues to realize performance improvements as the QMS matures and evolves to support the rapidly growing company.

CEO Anaya Vardya commented:

“It is critical to maintain our quality certifications for a couple of reasons. First, the customers we serve are some of the most demanding in the business, and our certifications  are mandatory to retain their business. Second, with the complexity of the advanced technology we produce daily, we just can’t afford mistakes and our QMS gives us the structure and discipline to minimize them.”

SMT Engineering achieves ISO 9001: 2015 Certification with a perfect audit!

SMT Engineering achieves ISO 9001: 2015 Certification with a perfect audit!

I am proud to announce that client SMT Engineeringhas received certification to ISO 9001: 2015 from certifying body Verisys. The company made the decision to differentiate themselves from other design services by pursuing ISO certification, and their hard work was rewarded with a perfect audit. This was a particularly noteworthy accomplishment as the QMS was developed from scratch and had no existing certification as a baseline. Greg Goltz (Director of Engineering), Steve Spelbring (Sr. Hardware Engineer and Rachel Maslanka (Engineering Project Specialist) embraced the challenge and engaged the entire organization in the effort.

Director of Engineering Greg Goltz stated:

“On behalf of SMT Engineering, I want to thank you for your knowledgeable insight, guidance, and patience during our recent ISO journey.  I am happy to report the hard work paid off as we have obtained our ISO-9001, 2015 certification last week and our audit could not have gone smoother.  I know we spent a significant amount of time working on our process documents and your expertise was well worth the investment. Our first audit had no major or minor findings, but we did receive a number of very positive observations. 

We started this endeavor trying to develop the process documents on our own, but quickly determined we could not accomplish this without external help and you came to us as a highly recommended industry resource.  Thank you again!  I will definitely use The Right Approach Consulting for future work and will gladly recommend your services to anyone that wants to obtain ISO Certification.”

Press Release: Midwest Printed Circuit Services (MPCS) Receives AS9100D: 2016 Certification

PRESS RELEASE: Midwest Printed Circuit Services (MPCS) Receives AS9100D: 2016 Certification

Round Lake Beach, IL

I am very proud to announce that client MPCS has received certification to AS9100D from certifying body Intertek. MPCS chose to skip the interim QMS upgrade to ISO 9001 2015 and went straight from ISO 9001 2008 to AS9100D. The company had a solid quality foundation going in from many years of certification to prior revisions of the standard, and through the transition to AS9100D, MPCS realized significant process improvements and simplification of the QMS. QMS Manager John Rupp, GM Bob Denbo and the entire MPCS staff were an absolute delight to work with and pulled together to get the job done.

When asked about what it took to implement AS9100, president and founder Joseph Fehsenfeld shared “The AS9100 journey really challenged us as an organization because we went from ISO 2008 to AS9100D, but I truly believe it has made MPCS a much better company.”
