A2Z Services’ systems are designed as an interrelated number of processes and based on national and international standards. The main activities of the system are grouped into the categories shown in Figure 1 including:

  • Leadership
  • Planning
  • Operation
  • Performance Evaluation
  • Support
  • Improvement

Underpinning these, the OMS contains a robust document control system including this quality manual, quality procedures, forms, other internal and external documents and data needed to manage, perform or verify work affecting product quality.

Awareness

The importance of stakeholder management is critical to the success of A2Z Services. As such we will take measures to actively understand and manage the positive, negative and changing influences from a range of interested parties (stakeholders).

A2Z Services ensures that our Workers and Management Team are aware of the context in which our business interacts within the larger framework. To do this we will consider our business aspects & Impacts in a corporate context, examine the expectations of interested parties, both internal and external, and determine the most significant processes that the QMS applies to. This includes all products, services and activities undertaken. We will achieve this by considering:

  • Our Company’s Quality Management Policy;
  • Our Company’s Quality Plans, Objectives and Targets;
  • The effectiveness of the QMS to ensure that our products and services meet and exceed our customers’ expectations and, what the benefits are of improving our processes, products and services continually
  • The effectiveness of the QMS to ensure that our products and services continually meets the needs and expectations of external and internal parties, including regulators (Use Interested Parties Register (OR0001) to list interested parties)
  • The consequences and implications (if any) of non-conformance of our environmental responsibilities against internal and external party’s requirements and expectations.
