GAAPS International has gained accreditation to the global standard ISO 9001:2000. This is in recognition of its commitment to providing a quality service and an efficient and enjoyable working environment. The ISO 9001 standard defines a format for a quality management system that has clear business objectives and a commitment to continuous improvement. Our quality system is independently audited by an internationally recognised United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) approved certification body.

We undertook 5 phases in order to gain accreditation. Phase 1 involved working with business consultants, producing process-mapping techniques regularly assessing our quality business processes and comparing them against industry 'best practice'. Phase 2 involved initiating any changes to achieve that standard, as well as drafting a Quality Policy Manual supporting outlined monitoring and measurement procedures.

During Phase 3 procedures were reviewed and agreed by our consultants, while Phase 4 involved ensuring their adherence, carrying out internal audits on our systems. In Phase 5, we applied for and were successfully registered to ISO 9001, proving GAAPS commitment to providing a high quality service to clients and candidates alike.

Our intention was and continues to be, to go beyond the industry standard, building on that base to reach excellence.
