-Each member of our team has over a decade of experience in developing, implementing, and maintaining ISO 9001, AS9100, and/or AS9120 Quality Management Systems. Each team member has undergone multiple ISO 9001/AS9100/AS9120 audits performed by Certification Bodies. Also, many of our team regularly contract as Auditors for ISO 9001/AS9100/AS9120 Certification Bodies. +

-This is how we're able to quickly and efficiently implement ISO 9001/AS9100/AS9120 and help achieve certification on the first attempt (often with ZERO nonconformities). After the initial certification is achieved, our team continues to work with our clients to maintain that certification... removing the burden of researching all of the changes that must be implemented when a standard is revised.  +

 +According to [[https://www.payscale.com/research/US/Job=Quality_Assurance_(QA)_Director/Salary|PayScale.com]] (12/23), a Quality Assurance Director in the United States earns an //average// base salary of $120,815 (without considering FICA tax (7.65% of Salary – approx. $9,140) + benefits). The high end of this salary range is $170k ($184k after Bonuses and profit Sharing). With every member of my team having over a decade of direct experience in quality and the certification process, each would easily qualify for the high end of this scale.

 + 
 +Our service brings the expertise of these premium quality professionals within reach of small and medium-sized companies that simply cannot justify the expense of a full-time, experienced Quality Assurance Director. 
 + 
 +Also, much of the QMS development can be performed __remotely/virtually__. 
  
 Most micro (≤10 employees) and small (11-50 employees) companies only need a part-time Quality professional to develop, implement, and oversee the QMS along with achieving and maintaining their QMS Certification. So rather than over-burden existing employees (possessing little or no quality experience) with those added responsibilities OR hiring a Consultant to train & guide your staff through the unfamiliar process of achieving QMS Certification, it makes sense to outsource these tasks to an experienced Quality Manager / Specialist on an as-needed basis… until a full-time Quality Assurance professional can be justified.  Most micro (≤10 employees) and small (11-50 employees) companies only need a part-time Quality professional to develop, implement, and oversee the QMS along with achieving and maintaining their QMS Certification.
