IHC Piping, part of the IHC Merwede Group, recently achieved the NEN-EN-ISO 9001:2008 Certificate for the manufacturing and installation of complex piping systems in the market sectors offshore, passenger ships, dredging vessels, navy vessels and special vessels using in house expertise.
Considering IHC Piping’s market and products, a strong concentration on customer and market expectations (an important principle in case of the ISO 9001) has been an essential part of those business processes for a long time.
The certification process has been utilised to clarify the business process for the employees and it served as a texture for the continual improvement of products and production processes. Apart from that, those processes have only been restricted up to their basic lines, so there is still enough flexibility to respond promptly to specific customers’ demands and needs.
