This month, TQCSI became the largest JASANZ accredited management systems certification body in the world.
After humble beginnings in Adelaide, South Australia in 1995, TQCSI now has 28 regional offices around the world and has issued certificates in over 36 countries.
Having overtaken SAI Global late last year, TQCSI this month overtook Singapore based certification body, GIC, and now has 9,052 certificates issued in 36 countries from the Pacific through to Europe.
TQCSI commenced operations in Adelaide, South Australia, in 1995 and has grown its international business since 2000. Head Office remains in Adelaide with 28 Regional Offices throughout the world. Of particular note is the office in China, which has enjoyed very significant growth over the last two years.
TQCSI's President and Managing Director, Craig Bates, informed the Company this afternoon "I'm immensely proud of what we've achieved over the last 25+ years" but cautioned "while our growth is impressive, we must all remain vigilant to ensure our auditing and certification processes continue to strictly comply with ISO and JASANZ requirements so that we can deliver the most professional and credible certification to our clients". He added, "it does nothing for the industry when competitors offer the world to their clients but deliver poorly and eventually lose their accreditation – that must never happen to TQCSI".
TQCSI has recently created new Regional Offices in Mongolia and the USA, and undergone office and witness assessments from ANAB for accreditation to the Aviation, Space & Defence (ASD) Standards (AS 9100 Series).
