What ISO certifications mean
The ISO 9001 certification ensures adherence to international standards for quality management systems, ensuring consistent delivery of products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements.
This certification is renowned for enhancing customer satisfaction, optimising costs, and improving management efficiency.
The ISO 14001 certification mandates establishing and implementing an Environmental Management System (EMS).
It requires businesses to conduct thorough environmental impact assessments, set environmental objectives and targets, and monitor and measure environmental performance.
This certification will empower MicCom to enhance its environmental stewardship, achieve operational efficiency, and gain a competitive edge, bolstering stakeholder trust and improving tender opportunities.
The ISO 45001 certification, which focuses on Occupational Health and safety (OH&S) management, is a testament to MicCom's dedication to fostering a safe working environment, mitigating risks, and ensuring the well-being of employees.
MicCom promises quality service
This certification promises improved safety standards, heightened stakeholder confidence, enhanced productivity, and reduced insurance premiums.
MicCom's attainment of the certifications not only distinguishes it as a leader within the cable manufacturing sector but also solidifies its position as the sole cable manufacturer and member of the Cable Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (CAMAN) to achieve such acclaim.
Endorsed by the Standards Organisation of Nigeria Management System Certification (SONMSC) and further accredited by the renowned International Accreditation Services (IAS), these certifications elevate MicCom Cables to unparalleled global recognition and excellence heights.
