An international certification opens your company's doors to a wider audience. Remember, it's an INTERNATIONAL standard. If you have an ISO certification 9001, those numbers mentioned in this blog will be evident in your company. Besides, an ISO registration can also help you reduce major costs in production.
Good post. I like to see the stats from the surveys. I think management reacts to stats like this and it lends creedance to quality professionals trying to get more support from management.
