Blue Sea Systems, a Bellingham-based manufacturer of marine electrical products, has achieved certification to the ISO 9001:2008 quality standard. Previous certification, to the ISO 9001:2000 standard, was held for three years. ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the largest developer and publisher of International Standards in the world. The ISO 9001:2008 standard contains a set of requirements for management to implement a quality management system, and provide the operations of the company with the resources required to make quality products.
“We are dedicated to following steps to ensure quality through the entire development of a product, from its initial design concept through product release,” said Scott Renne, President of Blue Sea Systems. “We apply a quality policy and program so that we can assign quantitative measurements to our processes. These processes are in place so that our customers are assured of the quality of the product through its lifetime.”
For Blue Sea Systems to be certified to the ISO 9001:2008 standard, a third party organization conducted an extensive audit of quality systems and operations. As an ISO 9001:2008 certified company, Blue Sea Systems demonstrates a commitment to conformity to International Standards and to a quality management system.
