Buzzi Unicem has renewed its quality management system certification for the company headquarters in Casale Monferrato and its production sites (Augusta, Barletta, Guidonia, Robilante, Settimello, Siniscola, Trino and Vernasca).
The certificate was issued by ICMQ in accordance with the UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 standard more than six months earlier than the required deadline (September 2018).
The work done during 2017 to adapt to the new standard was extensive: the risk-based thinking approach led Buzzi Unicem to prepare a more flexible and streamlined quality manual and to revise several operational procedures in alignment with the requirements of ISO 9001:2015. This included defining the context of the organisation, identifying the parties involved and understanding their interests, analysing and evaluating the risks, and managing change from the perspective of continuous improvement.
