Quality certification
Obsequentia is an Australian owned quality certifying body that operates in every Australian state and territory. We aim to make the quality certification process as hassle free as possible. Quality Management Systems (QMS) – ISO 9001 is an internationally recognized standard for the quality management of businesses. ISO 9001 is the world’s most recognized business management standard and its core objective is to reduce risk, improve customer satisfaction, motivate staff and promote a culture within the organisation of continual improvement i.e. things are done right the first time! ISO 9001 is very versatile and can be implemented in all industries – from manufacturers and service companies, to local or even global companies.
The key principles of ISO 9001 include:- Customer focus
- Leadership
- Involvement of people
- Process approach
- Systems approach to management
- Continual improvement
- Factual approach to decision making
- Mutually beneficial supplier relationship.
- staff will work with the client to ensure accurate information is collated for the preparation of a proposal
- the completion of a gap analysis. The gap analysis compares the organisation's level of compliance against ISO 9001
- the certification audit further assesses the level of implementation of ISO 9001. At the successful conclusion of the certification process Obsequentia provides clients with a certificate that endorses the client's QMS.
- surveillance audits are conducted at least once a year to ensure the ongoing maintenance of the QMS.
At the end of any quality certification audit clients are provided with a comprehensive audit report - not just a "tick sheet". This ensures that clients are well informed of all audit outcomes.

Environment certification
Environmental Management System Certification ISO 14001 helps organisations identify, prioritise and manage environmental risks as part of everyday business. This environmental standard is very easy to use and can be used by any organisation, irrespective of their size, location or type of industry.
Obsequentia environmental management system certification provides a benchmark for an organisation to measure their environmental performance. The major benefit of environmental certification is that it:
- Reduces costs An organisation is required to continually improve their environmental management system. This improvement is assessed by how the organisation performs against environmental improvement objectives.
- Prevention of pollution ISO 14001 involves the completion of risk assessments which ensures an organisation has mitigation measures in place and has a proactive rather than reactive culture within the organisation
- Competitive advantage Become a supplier of choice and have a competitive advantage over your competitors since your organisation is environmentally certified.
- Manage your reputation ISO 14001 certification can help to reduce risks associated with any cost or damage to your reputation associated with clean-ups or litigation and builds your public image towards clients, regulatory bodies and key stakeholders.
- Compliments existing management standards ISO 14001 compliments ISO 9001 hence, an organisation can have an environmental management system that can work in conjunction with their quality management system.
