Solution
The company engaged with a Polaris MEP project manager to perform ISO9001:2015 internal auditor training for 10 employees. All 10 employees received a Certificate of Completion after attending training and demonstrating proficiency with auditing skills. This training program was a critical element to a larger project. These newly trained employees completed internal audits to the new ISO 9001:2015 Quality Standard. The audit findings and resulting corrective actions, led to a successful external upgrade audit.
