By Health Robotics, PRNEWednesday, February 17, 2010
BOZEN, SUD-TIROL, Italy, February 18, 2010 - Health Robotics, the undisputed worldwide leading supplier of
life-critical I.V. Robots, today announced that it has been recently awarded
by SGS (Societe General de Surveillance) the ISO certification (according to
the UN EN ISO 9001:2008 norm), the globally accepted standard for companies
to prove their ability to satisfy quality requirements and to enhance
customer satisfaction in supplier-customer relationships. This ISO 9001:2008
certification demonstrates Health Robotics' commitment to quality for the
design, manufacturing, and service of its unique CytoCare, i.v.STATION and
TPNstation intravenous therapy and parenteral nutrition robots for the global
market, and also demonstrates Health Robotics' meeting ISO's strict
qualifications.
"Achieving ISO 9001:2008 certification constitutes a key milestone for
Health Robotics. As we continue to maintain our company as the world's
leading innovator and supplier of intravenous pharmacy automation, this ISO
certification is yet another step in ensuring that our products consistently
meet and exceed the expectations of our customers. Quality has been a
cornerstone of Health Robotics since its inception in 2006 and this
certification reinforces our dedication and commitment to provide our
customers with state-of-the-art, high-quality products. The Health Robotics
team takes great pride in achieving this significant credential, as it
reinforces our company's quality system as being among the best-of-class.
This ISO certification award means that our quality management system assures
the integrity of our processes and it reinforces the confidence that our
customers have placed in us to deliver unique and innovative products and
services that meet or exceed their exacting requirements." stated Werner
Rainer, Health Robotics' CEO.
To be certified to this ISO standard, companies must implement a quality
management system embracing all of the activities within the company. These
include staff training, meeting customer expectations, designing and
developing products, purchasing materials and services, and delivering
products and services. Certification to ISO 9001:2008 reinforces to our
customers, through an independent third-party such as SGS, that Health
Robotics operates a quality management system in accordance with the strict
ISO standard. While Health Robotics has always made the quality of its
products and meeting customer expectations a priority, we welcomed the
opportunity that ISO certification presented to benchmark our internal
processes versus the industry's best practices. This caused us to improve and
upgrade many aspects of our business methodology in handling all aspects of
the customer experience. Continuously improving not only the product offering
but the entire customer experience is key to driving lasting sustainable
growth for our company worldwide. Earning the ISO 9001:2008 certification
assures our customers of the commitment we have to serving them with
excellence. This major milestone is critical to Health Robotics because our
customers correctly view ISO 9001:2008 certification as a way of ensuring the
quality and reliability of our products in the global marketplace.

Finding customer specific requirements has long been a challenge. In fact, a survey of current automotive suppliers found that a significant number did not know where to go for the latest applicable customer specific requirements. For registrars and end users, this represents a serious problem. How can rules be followed and enforced if they are not readily available? It is with these challenges in mind customerspecifics.com was created. Here you will find a community to access, share, and discuss customer specific requirements. Please understand that the content of this site will take some time to develop as we work hand in hand with each of you to build a comprehensive database of the thousands of available customer specific requirements. We ask that you join us in our cause as we attempt to build something great for the common benefit of the quality community. |
