ISO 9001:2015 Certifed Management System, Sarbanes-Oxley and COSO Compliance - #1 for CONFORMITY

A QualitySafe^TM ecosystem is a business environment where the processes that create the "end-product" and "end-service" are actively managed to meet the expectations of the customer and comply with all regulatory requirements. How do we achieve this very high level of business nirvana? Through an ISO 9001 quality management system.

What is ISO 9001? According to the Swiss-based International Organization for Standardization (ISO), ISO 9001 "is a standard that sets out the requirements for a quality management system (QMS). It helps businesses and organizations to be more efficient and improve customer satisfaction."

ISO 9001:2015 Certified Quality Management System

Quality Management? A novel approach for the investment industry. At PEMX, quality is not merely a word, it is what - or who - we are. Certified Quality Management is much better than mere Quality Management because certification provides the global community independent proof that an organization's QMS is implemented and effective. Certification is effected if and only if internationally accredited, 3rd-party auditors are retained to review, validate and verify the efficacy of the organization's QMS.
