PTI GROUP'S MANUFACTURING & ENGINEERING DIVISIONS EARN ISO CERTIFICATION
EDMONTON, Dec. 13 /CNW/ - PTI Group Inc., a North American leader in remote site workforce accommodations and catering services, announced today the successful completion of its ISO registration for its modular manufacturing division.
ISO, or "International Organization for Standardization", is the world's largest developer and publisher of international standards. To achieve its certification, companies participate in a demanding process that includes a stringent audit of management practices and process reviews.
After completing a 14 month process, PTI's modular manufacturing division was successful in earning ISO 9001:2008 certification. The ISO 9000 family addresses "Quality Management" and audits what the organization does to maintain quality control, regulatory requirements, and customer satisfaction. It also reviews the company's established continuous improvement processes, documentation, training, and financial systems. The certification covers PTI's manufacturing plants as well as its engineering and project management practices.
Robert Maze, PTI's Vice President of Manufacturing, believes the ISO certification reinforces the company's leadership position in a competitive market. "Internally, we've always sought a high standard in everything we do," says Maze. "Now we have a globally recognized industry benchmark that provides an unbiased opinion on how we operate. It's a significant marketable asset that our customers can appreciate and gives them confidence that they are dealing with a reliable sophisticated partner."
PTI Group is one of North America's largest fully integrated suppliers of remote site services providing temporary and permanent workforce accommodations, food services, facility management, and water and wastewater services to resource industries worldwide. PTI Group is a subsidiary of Houston-based Oil States International, a diversified oilfield services company publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol OIS.
