Assessing the Effectiveness of Quality Management Systems
A robust Quality Management System (QMS) based on ISO 9001 ensures consistent quality, customer satisfaction, and continual improvement. Our QMS audit services evaluate both internal systems and suppliers to confirm alignment with ISO standards and corporate requirements.
BQCIS conducts Gap Analyses, Pre-Assessment Audits, and Second-Party Supplier Audits to verify readiness for certification and ensure that all processes, controls, and documentation comply with quality system expectations.
These independent audits provide the insights needed to close non-conformities, mitigate supplier risks, and strengthen organizational performance — paving the way for successful ISO 9001 certification and long-term quality excellence.

Success Story
Pre-Assessment Audit Leads to First-Time ISO 9001 Certification
A manufacturer preparing for ISO 9001 certification needed a mock audit to identify potential non-conformities before the registrar’s formal audit visit.
BQCIS auditors conducted a full gap analysis and simulated Stage 2 audit, reviewing documentation, management review processes, and on-site operations to reveal readiness gaps.
Following our recommendations, the client addressed all gaps, improved document control, and implemented effective corrective actions — achieving ISO 9001 certification with zero major findings on the first attempt.
