Testimonial

The Mount Charles Group engaged the services of New Paradigm Consulting in June 2011 to co-ordinate the management of our Integrated Management System (IMS) that is certified against the requirements of ISO 9001 & ISO 14001. At that time, we realised co-ordinating the system was becoming more difficult for our staff as the business was growing and they had other roles and responsibilities to carry out. Since then, Ryan has assisted us in maintaining our certification and streamlining our processes. It has been extremely beneficial for the Group to have constant access to ISO related expert advice, as we can keep up to date with ISO best practise and ensure the administration associated with maintaining the IMS is kept to a minimum. We are very happy with our relationship with New Paradigm Consulting as we have not had to worry about an audit since June 2011. Given that we have performed very well in external audits to date (6 in total), we would have no hesitation in recommending New Paradigm Consulting to any organisation that is searching for a cost effective and hassle free way of gaining and maintaining ISO certification.
