Valeport Certifies against International Quality Standards

In July 2017 Valeport, UK, underwent a number of ISO audits, successfully updating the firm’s certifications to ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management and ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management. Valeport is now also certified to BS OHSAS 18001, the British standard for occupational health and safety.

ISO 14001:2015 sets out the criteria for an environmental management system. Certification to this standard evidences Valeport’s work to measure and improve the subsea supplier’s environmental impact.

ISO 9001:2015 is a standard to support organisations to meet the needs of customers, stakeholders, as well as statutory and regulatory requirements. ISO 9001 particularly examines customer focus, the motivation of Valeport’s management, their process approach and drive for continual improvements, which ensures that quality management is at the heart of Valeport’s activities. 

This year, Valeport were also audited to BS OHSAS 18001 for the first time. This new accreditation formally recognises Valeport’s commitment to occupational health and safety across the company’s processes and systems.
