GOW-MAC® Instrument Co.,
Bethlehem, PA-based manufacturer of gas chromatographs and gas analyzers, has
received ISO 9001:2008 certification by way of BSI Group America Inc. (BSI), a
leading global provider of ISO-standards-based assurance, compliance, and
information solutions. Frank Rocchino, Director of Compliance and Documentation
at GOW-MAC, explains, "GOW-MAC has been producing high-precision
analytical instrumentation for over 75 years, so the concept of ‘quality’ is
certainly something that was a fundamental component of our culture. However,
conforming an entire company's Quality Management System to meet the stringent
ISO 9001:2008 Standard requires a total commitment from the entire company. We
were fortunate to have unwavering support from top management, as well as an
enthusiastic response from the employees during the entire process. Without
both of those, this project would've been impossible."
During a company
celebration, Jeffrey Lawson, President/CEO recognized the GOW-MAC team, saying
that, "This is a very important accomplishment for GOW-MAC. I am very
proud of our employees. They are the ones that really made the ISO 9001:2008
registration possible with a tremendous amount of hard work and dedication.
This is a clear sign to our customers that GOW-MAC is committed to continually
improving our quality management system in order to meet their needs and the
needs of evolving analytical markets."
Ken Fincke, Vice
President of Sales and Marketing at GOW-MAC, added, “Those manufacturers
seeking to access new markets largely need ISO 9001:2008 accreditation in place
to do so. The certification allows us to move quickly on to the next phase of
our product development.”
