ISO 9001 for small manufacturers.
Fixed pricing. No guesswork.
We take manufacturers from gap analysis to certificate in about four months, whether you machine parts, fabricate, assemble, or run a production line. And because a system is only as good as the people running it, we also staff your floor: machinists, operators, maintenance techs, inspectors, quality managers.
Who we work with
Built for the manufacturers the big consultancies ignore
Machine & job shops
A customer asked if you're ISO certified and the honest answer is "not yet." We get you certified so you can bid the work, and we keep the paperwork lean enough that your shop still runs like a shop.
Fabrication, assembly & production plants
Welding and fab, assembly lines, finishing, packaging, maintenance-heavy operations. If you make or move product, the standard fits you. We build a system around your process and your equipment, from calibration to preventive maintenance, not a generic template.
Oil & gas suppliers
Operators and EPCs won't add you to the approved vendor list without a real QMS. We build systems that hold up when the customer's own auditor shows up, with a clear path to API Q1 if a contract calls for it.
Contract manufacturers
Your customers audit you for a living. We turn tribal knowledge into a documented system that passes their audits and survives turnover on your floor.
The process
Four steps. You always know where you stand.
Week 1-2
Gap Analysis
We walk your facility against every requirement of the standard. You get a written roadmap and a real budget. Fixed price: $1,000-$2,500.
Months 1-3
Build
We write the system around how your facility already works. Your people keep running the floor. We handle the documentation.
Month 3-4
Audit-Ready
Internal audit, management review, corrective actions closed. We run a dry-run audit and fix what an auditor would find before one does.
Certification
Certify & Keep It
We support you through the registrar audit and stay available after. If findings come up, we help close them at no extra consulting fee.
Quality Assurance, Quality Talent
We build the system. We staff the people who run it.
Consulting
Gap analysis, ISO 9001 implementation, internal audits, AS9100. Quality systems written in plain English for small and mid-size manufacturers.
Manufacturing Recruiting
Machinists, CNC operators and programmers, maintenance technicians, inspectors, supervisors, quality managers. Every candidate is vetted by someone who works inside manufacturing quality systems every day, so we know the difference between a resume and a hand.
In between the two sits the Fractional Quality Manager. We run your quality system part-time for a fraction of a full-time salary. When you're ready to hire your own, we recruit that person and hand them a documented, working system. See how it works
Pricing
We publish our numbers
Most firms make you sit through a sales call to hear a price. Ours is on the site. Gap analysis runs a fixed $1,000-$2,500 depending on facility size and standard. Implementation gets quoted after the gap analysis, in writing, because quoting it before we've seen your gaps would just be a guess.
