From our offices to our workshops, our teams share these values driven by our quality management system.

QUALITY

Our quality policy is logically oriented around ISO 9000 standards. After our initial ISO 9002 certification in 1994, the new version of the standard, ISO 9001:2008, gave us an opportunity to focus our priorities on customer satisfaction.

Our quality system’s compliance with those standards is demonstrated on an annual basis by Bureau Veritas Certification.

HANDS-ON MANAGEMENT

In 2010, we set up a system based on hands-on management, which provides an interface between management and the operating teams, allowing us to structure and strengthen on-site coordination and to focus on improving performance levels.
The company’s management is thus organized around “SQDC” performance indicators:

  • Security: controlling risks so as to avoid accidents
  • Quality: ensuring compliant manufacturing
  • Deadlines: avoiding non-compliance with customer requests
  • Costs: optimizing the use of resources
