Over the course of the last 3 years the Blue Machinery businesses have established and implemented an Integrated Management System (IMS) in house. In 2024 the focus has been on improving the utilisation and value of the IMS to achieve globally recognised accreditations ISO 45001 for Health & Safety, ISO 9001 for Quality and ISO 14001 for Environment. Whilst these accreditations benefit the business externally, the primary drive has been internal continuous improvement to ensure exceptional H&S performance and the protection of our people, unmatched customer service and the consideration of how we might reduce the impact our business activities have on the environment now, and in the future.
In September we underwent Stage 2 ISO Audits with AUVA, with 4 auditors visiting our sites over the course of a week. The auditors spent time with Hannah France and other members of the team talking about our processes, sampling documentation and touring the offices, workshops and warehouses. With not a single non-conformance picked up along the way, we were awarded all three accreditations across the Group.
This is an incredibly significant achievement for the Group and a testament to the hard work and commitment of our staff. The ISO accreditations are not a destination, but a journey and we have a great foundation on which we can keep growing and improving.
