RapidEye Granted ISO 9001:2000 Certification
Brandenburg an der Havel, Germany, April 23, 2008- RapidEye, a geospatial information services and solutions provider, is pleased to announce that TÜV NORD of Germany, an official accreditation body for ISO 9001 standards, has granted RapidEye ISO 9001:2000 certification for their Quality Management Systems (QMS) after an extensive audit. This certificate covers marketing, sale, development, and provision of geo-spatial product and service projects.
(firmenpresse) - Globally recognized and respected, ISO 9001:2000 standards are set by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), a Geneva-based worldwide federation of national standard bodies. This certification demonstrates RapidEye's dedication to and implementation of a dedicated, systematic and quantifiable approach to quality standards.
“Preparation for certification began in mid-2007, and the dedication of our staff to this endeavor has resulted in processes that give us consistency and a company-wide Quality Management System that we can be proud of,” expressed Frederik Jung-Rothenhäusler, Head of Product Development and QMS Manager.
RapidEye is currently anticipating the launch of their own constellation of five earth observation satellites by mid-year. This recognition of the company's standardized best practice techniques is an important milestone as the constellation that supports RapidEye's core business of providing geospatial solutions should be commercially operational by the end of the summer.
“The ISO certification validates our business processes throughout the company which are being applied to produce the highest standard of quality in our products and services for our current and future customers,” said Wolfgang Biedermann, CEO of RapidEye.
