SPRINGFIELD, IL The Bunn-O-Matic Corporation, a manufacturer of commercial and home beverage equipment, has announced that it's Creston, Iowa; Springfield and White Hall, Illinois facilities have successfully passed their ISO 9001:2000 Triennial Assessment. All ISO registered company's must pass this complete audit of all aspects of its Quality Management System once every three years in order to continue their registration.
The ISO 9000 series Standards are internationally recognized quality management system requirements developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It places great emphasis on quality commitment and planning by top management and all employees. This “system input, system output” approach is measured and evidence of system performance must be demonstrated.
BUNN began the registration process in 1998. The White Hall, Illinois facility was added to the registration in 2003. As part of the process, UL performed an on-site assessment, examination of documented procedures and a survey of the company’s overall operations. To determine continued compliance with ISO 9001:2000, UL will periodically conduct routine surveillance audits of BUNN’s operations.
The successful completion of the Triennial Assessment was made possible by the ongoing and sustained efforts of BUNN employees to continually improve the Quality Management System. At the core of these improvement efforts is the belief that we must understand the customer's, both internal and external, requirements and complete the job right the first time. A key component of the ISO registration is an ongoing program of internal audits conducted by Bunn-O-Matic internal auditors to both educate affected parties to the standards, and, to assure compliance with ISO 9001:2000. |
