Om Podcasten

The Quality Hub podcast is where we chat with ISO experts about “all things Quality.” Many businesses find themselves required to or find it valuable to implement a Quality Management System. Our goal is to share the knowledge we’ve gained by working with Quality Management Systems (QMS’s), ISO standards, and other business best practices with our podcast listeners. We want you to be encouraged by our education and experiences. We know that QMS and ISO standard concepts can be confusing, and we want to act as “translators” to simplify these principles, so you can apply them to YOUR business. Our organization has a vast amount of combined experience, having worked with 1000’s of customers over the past 23 years. We want to share these stories and lessons learned with YOU, our listeners! Tune in weekly as we share our experiences to help you get the most from your Quality Management System.
