Certifications
One of the key performance factors of an organization is the quality of its products and services. There is a worldwide trend towards increasing consumer expectations regarding the quality of products and services at ever lower prices.
In this way, there has been a growing awareness that continuous improvements in quality are often required to achieve and ensure good economic performance.
Certification brings benefits to companies, namely to the image of the organization, the increase in customer satisfaction, the focus on prevention, the mobilization around a common goal and to the reduction of waste and costs.
