GW Associates Testimonials

"I have used Gary Williams Associates for a good few years now and cannot recommend them highly enough for a fantastic value for money service. Their approach to the ISO process is very refreshing as they ensure the system implemented is bespoke to our company and actually adds value. I have received very positive comments from my customers regarding our quality system and this is down to the knowledge and professionalism of GWA. Our UKAS certification body audits are always pain free and are managed excellently to ensure a successful certification."

"We found that GWA were able to breakdown the ISO-speak of the standards into simplified terms that made implementation of our Integrated Management System (ISO 9001) as painless and simple as possible, causing the minimum disruption to our staff and the business and helping us with system structure to help the effective running of the business."

"Static Control have used GWA to support our transition to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001@2015 as a combined IMS. Gary Williams Associates real world experience enabled the transition to flow effectively, on time and on budget.
We continue to use GWA for our internal auditing and find that their light touch approach keeps audits simple, targeted and not onerous.
Testament to the efficacy of their consultations is our recent surveillance visit passing without concern. Next year will bring our recertification audits and we feel confident this will go smoothly with the support we can depend on from GWA".
