Testimonials

'The Quality Team play a major part within our quality management system.  They have been involved with the system since the outset from the initial steps in setting it up through to supporting us as we have developed the procedures in line with the changes in our business.  They provide the knowledge and experience that we do have in-house and have developed a good understanding of our business in a very short time.  Without their contribution we would have found it very difficult to maintain the systems and procedures as our operations have grown and changed.  They have provided us with the right amount of support at a time when we needed it most.'

'It is a pleasure to acknowledge the significant contribution that Peter Flight (from The Quality Team Ltd) has made to the development and operation of our business management system.  He has been responsible for delivering on  a range of quality related activities including major audits of projects and services, the design, introduction and validation of a project control method and supporting auditees and local quality champions.  Peter's dogged persistance and quiet authority have been key attributes in improving the ways in which PITO manages its work.  His work as part of PITO's Quality Assurance Team was crucial to the award of ISO 9001:2000 and TickIT certification by LRQA in June 2006'.
