Apparently
to ensure strict adherence to global best practice, two Strategic Business
Units (SBUs) of Alpha Mead Group – Alpha
Mead Development Company (AMDC) and
Alpha Mead Facilities Management Services Limited (AMFacilities) have the
highly coveted Quality Management System
(QMS) certification – ISO 9001:2015.
The
new certification clearly positions AMDC as one of the real estate development
company in Nigeria certified to international standards and AMFacilities as
facilities management company to successfully transit from the ISO 9001:2008 to
ISO 9001:2015.
The
ISO 9001:2015 certification is an international quality and risk management
standards that audit the quality processes and systems of businesses. It
ascertains that businesses and operational processes are robust enough to
consistently deliver quality products and services that are in line with global
best practices to the customers.
“This remarkable achievement clearly reinforces our leadership
position in the market,” said Femi Akintunde, Group Managing
Director, Alpha Mead Group. “Our aim is to ensure that
customers and clients of real estate products and services in Nigeria continue
to get quality comparable to what is obtainable internationally. And we keep
improving our processes to demonstrate to the industry that it is possible to
have international quality in Nigeria,” Akintunde added at a press
conference in Lagos.
According
to Akintunde, the certification will amongst other benefits, assure the
customers of the company its unalloyed commitment to quality services in line
with the changing realities of the market, the sophistication of Real Estate
assets and the increasing demand for quality in the market. “For an organization like ours that provides business and
strategic support services to multinationals in different locations around the
world, this for us is a means of reassuring our customers that we are in touch
with global trends and we have the capacity to continue to serve them well,”
he noted.
Congratulating
both SBUs of the Alpha Mead Group, Mrs.
Adenike Akinbote, System Certification Manager, Bureau Veritas identified
commitment to global best practice and dedication to professional business
service as the key success factors for the certification of AMDC and
recertification of AMF to ISO 9001:2015.
Commenting
on the milestone, the Chairman, Board of Directors, Alpha Mead Group, Obi Nwasike, and engineer said: “In simple terms, what this certification means is that our
quality and risk management processes and systems are at par with global best
practices. This implies that we can operate in any market and serve any class
of customer anywhere in the world: and our quality will be acceptable.”
Also
speaking on the feat by both brands, Mrs.
Wale Odufalu, Deputy Managing Director of Alpha Mead Group said: “This new certification also demonstrates that we are happy
and willing to take on new challenges. It speaks to our culture of continuous
improvement and our resolve to ensure that our mission to engage the best
people and equip them with the best processes and standards is alive beyond the
mere words. We are committed to this mission and this is one of the things that
keep us going.”
On his
part, Damola Akindolire, Executive
Director, Real Estate development of Alpha Mead said the certification of AMDC
is deliberate, especially now that quality is becoming a cliché on Real Estate
product.
She
said: “Everybody claims they are producing quality Real
Estate Assets but not everyone can define clearly the process of producing
quality. So this certification is for us to prove to our customers that we mean
quality when we say quality and that is why we have put our process of
producing quality to international assessment and by this certification, we
believe that the international community has spoken and endorse that we have
defined methodologies for producing quality.” (Guardian)
