Modality Solutions, a leading biopharmaceutical cold chain engineering firm, is pleased to announce it achieved its ISO 9001:2015 registration by certification body Intertek.

Modality Solutions’ Quality Manager, Hannah Anderson, spearheaded the year-long process. In preparation for the audits, she reviewed and revised all existing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and created ten new SOPs. Anderson trained staff on the new standards, conducted internal audits, and managed the Intertek audits at the Modality Solutions corporate office in Houston and the company’s Advantage Transport Simulation Laboratory™ in Bloomington, Indiana.

The scope of Modality Solutions’ ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System certification covers consulting, design and engineering services and testing for supply chain logistics related to transport-sensitive food and drug products.

According to the independent non-governmental international ISO organization, the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System (QMS) is internationally recognized as the world’s leading quality management standard. It has been implemented by more than one million organizations in over 170 countries globally.

“It was a great experience to help Modality Solutions navigate and achieve ISO certification and a privilege to continue in my position to lead our quality objectives overall,” said Anderson. “Before achieving the certification, many clients requested on-site audits of our transportation simulation laboratory and quality management systems. With the certification, I think Modality Solutions will save our clients both time and money as we continue to build their confidence in our overall quality management approach. ISO 9001:2015 increases efficiency for our clients.”

ISO 9001:2015 specifies requirements for a Quality Management System when an organization:

  • needs to demonstrate its ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and applicable statutory as well as regulatory requirements
  • aims to enhance customer satisfaction through the assurance of conformity to customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

“With our ISO 9001:2015 certification, our clients are confident in knowing the services we provide will meet or exceed the requirements of this internationally recognized quality management standard,” said Gary Hutchinson, President of Modality Solutions. “By demonstrating our ongoing commitment to our quality management systems, both GDP and ISO 9001:2015, we will continue to implement improvements towards increased efficiency and maximum client satisfaction.”
