In today’s competitive marketplace many companies search for ways to provide their clients with the highest possible standards of quality. As a result, many companies are adopting the ISO 9001 Quality Management System.

Internationally, ISO 9001 is one of the most highly regarded and sought-after quality management systems, across all industries. This standard was set up by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), a worldwide federation of international standards associations, headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. It was founded to develop a common set of international standards for manufacturing, trade and communications. Today more than 90 countries are members of ISO.

The objective of ISO is to set standards for quality and customer satisfaction. These ISO 9001 standards are audited by an independent organization called a “Registrar”, who certifies compliance under the globally accepted quality management system requirements. The certification assures existing and prospective customers that an effective quality management system is in place.

It is now common for businesses in the United States and abroad to require suppliers to indicate that they are certified under the ISO 9001 Quality Management System or a similar program, as a pre-requisite for doing business. Energy International’s certification often serves as a means of differentiating our products and services from those of our competitors, thereby giving our company a distinct competitive edge.

The benefits of ISO 9001 certification for Energy International (EI) are:

• Employees become more responsive to customer needs
• Business procedures and processes are all standardized
• Better communications between employees and customers
• The sales force gains greater confidence
• More effective and improved efficiency of Operations
• Substantial growth in customer satisfaction

In 2003, EI submitted to its first audit for certification under ISO 9001:2000 standards by BVQI (Bureau Veritas Quality International). By obtaining this certification, EI is now among the select group of companies that adheres to the highest quality standards possible in satisfying the needs of its clients.


EI was most recently certified in 2007, by SGS Société Générale de Surveillance SA, the world’s leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company. SGS is recognized as the global benchmark for quality and integrity with offices around the world.

EI has incorporated the ISO 9001 standard as the backbone of our quality management system. In addition to ISO 9001, we also apply other international standards such as OSHA 18001 and ISO 14001, always with the objective of reducing or resolving potential problems in industrial quality control, health and safety issues.
