“Variant 180 gives the time and attention to the intricate details in understanding the business challenges of a quality system needed for a small business.”
“Variant 180 is the consummate Quality professional. His wealth of knowledge and years of experience show in his ability to rapidly establish a ground up effort into a full fledged quality system. He gives his time and attention to the intricate details in understanding the business challenges of a quality system needed for a small business. Variant 180 understands the absolutely critical role QA plays within an organization and took a young, understaffed, and minimally effective team with no prior Quality system knowledge and created a top-notch, highly effective QMS within six months eventually leading to ISO 9001 & ISO 13485 certification. His mentoring and training skills have grown our employees into highly effective members of the team, in a remarkably short period of time.
I strongly recommend Variant 180 to help your small business in developing and continuously improving your Quality Management Systems (QMS).”
