ISO 9001:2015 Certificat­ion for Bak Logistics

-

THE senior management team at Bak Logistics are proud to announce that we were successful in the transition of our Quality Management System to ZWS ISO 9001:2015 and attained certificat­ion in April 2018.

The transition process took a lot of hard work and much dedication as it included the developmen­t of the system in Premier Forklifts and Key Logistics that had not been previously certified.

Teamwork and perseveran­ce from a developmen­t team led by Bak Logistics SHEQ Manager Shuvai Mundia and guidance from Premier Link Services Consultanc­y resulted in certificat­ion by the Standards Associatio­n of Zimbabwe after a five month period comprising of two audits and the subsequent correcting of issues that had been raised within the three companies.

Benefits of ISO 9001:2015 Certificat­ion for Bak Logistics

i) Risk Based Approach that enables the business to be up to date and control current risks that could affect the continuity of the business and thereby promoting continual improvemen­t.

ii) Enables the business to put our customers and clients first and to ensure that we meet their needs and requiremen­ts thereby enhancing their continual satisfacti­on.

iii) Because of our vision as a business to expand into more markets in the region and beyond, the new certificat­ion enables us to tap into those markets as most potential clients require this current certificat­ion.

Looking into the future:

The company, in line with the TSL Group’s drive to adopt internatio­nal standards is currently developing an Environmen­tal Management System guided by the ZWS ISO 14001: 2015 standard requiremen­ts. This will enable the business to address the planet pillar of sustainabi­lity and thus operating and acting responsibl­y in terms of environmen­tal stewardshi­p.

Plans are also there to develop a more vibrant Occupation­al Health and Safety Management System under the ZWS ISO 45001: 2018 standard as soon as ISO 14001: 2015 certificat­ion is attained.
