At RSP UK, we understand that customer confidence is essential to our success, and to the success of making suction excavation a mainstream practice on sites across the country. That’s why we were really proud to be accredited with ISO Occupational Health and Safety Management System (ISO 45001), ISO Quality Management System (ISO 9001), and ISO Environmental Management System (ISO 14001) earlier this year.

These accreditations demonstrate our commitment to providing safe, high-quality, and environmentally responsible products and services. They also give our customers peace of mind knowing that we’re committed to being externally audited to ensure that we’re working to the highest standards.

Here are some of the specific benefits of ISO accreditation for our customers:

• Increased safety: ISO 45001 requires us to identify and assess hazards, implement controls to mitigate risks, and monitor our performance. This helps us to create a safer workplace for our employees and our customers.
• Improved quality: ISO 9001 requires us to have a documented quality management system that includes processes for planning, controlling, and improving our products and services. This helps us to deliver products and services that meet our customers’ expectations.
• Reduced environmental impact: ISO 14001 requires us to identify and assess environmental impacts, implement controls to minimize impacts, and monitor our performance. This helps us to reduce our environmental impact and operate in a more sustainable way.

In addition to these specific benefits, ISO accreditation also gives our customers confidence in our overall business practices. We wanted to pursue these accreditations for ourselves, because they help us to critically assess and improve our internal processes, but also for our customers so that you know that we’re committed to continuous improvement and that we’re taking steps to protect your safety and quality too.

For customers, choosing a manufacturer can be difficult, especially as the market expands, but this kind of externally assessed accreditation demonstrates how seriously we take our professionalism and your association with us.
