FEEDBACK FROM OUR CLIENTS
“We have employed the services of Quality Eye Consultancy Services for a number of years in a number of areas (incl. CI works, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 and ISO 22000). Systems have developed to a level that has been benchmarked within our own company as well as other blue chip companies. Blair Matthew has been a key contributor in such improvements. We have also utilised QECS in other areas, when we have had some initiatives out with normal day to day running of our operation, these have included in depth investigations into stock control and losses, development of site 5 year business plans, compilation of regional grant assistance requests to name just a few. QECS have been key contributors to our site successes and we will continue to utilise them, as we continue to develop our current success.”

“Quality Eye Consultancy Services Ltd, were enlisted to support the simplification and rationalising of existing business processes, to meet intent of the ISO 9001 standard. Having quickly understood our business needs, this assisted us greatly in reducing the complexity of documentation, and non-value-adding processes. Having guided us through the pre and post-certification audit processes, and successfully achieving the standard, we would have no hesitation in recommending future support”.

“Assistance from QECS proved invaluable in achieving certification to ISO9001. Advice and consultancy from Blair Matthew allowed us to successfully complete the project, despite working to an extremely tight time schedule with limited internal resources. Utilising his experience allowed us to go into the assessment against the standard with confidence.”

“I have known Blair for a number of years during which time he has joined our consultancy team during a number of projects involving various scopes of work including ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001, ISO 14001, SIA standards and the like. Blair is a safe pair of hands with a passion for attention to detail. He delivers practical, down to earth advice and assistance to organisations large and small across many industry sectors in a friendly and professional manner whilst still retaining an objective viewpoint, something which is essential for this type of consultancy work”.

“Quality Eye Consultancy Services (QECS) were contracted by MB Firepumps Ltd, some years ago to construct an ISO 9001 package, which was streamlined to suit the needs of our business.
The assistance Blair Matthew has provided has been invaluable, his in-depth knowledge and patience has allowed our business to expand and been able to adjust to moving of premises and time constraints, Blair has become a valuable contributor to our business development.
The professional manner in which QECS have built our system, assisting with H&S queries and combining their working knowledge and training, adapting to suit our business has proven extremely cost effective. As MB Firepumps Ltd continue to develop, QECS will remain an important part within our Quality Programme. Over recent years without QECS professionalism we would not have had the structure in place necessary to advance in our working environment, there would be no hesitation to recommend QECS to other businesses looking to set up a quality system from start to certification and still offering continued support with ideas and grant investigation to help develop the business further”.

“QECS were contracted by Red Mosquito to carry out an audit of our Glasgow premises. This audit was conducted in a very professional manner and the subsequent report was well written and thorough. This process has proved invaluable in ensuring that our business is compliant with HSE regulations. Since the audit, QECS have provided us with ongoing advice and assistance on all matters relating to Health and Safety, and we are very pleased with the service provided to date. We consider that QECS provide a cost effective, friendly and knowledgeable service and would have no hesitation in recommending to others looking to engage a consultant in this capacity”

“I hereby convey my appreciation to Blair Matthew (of QECS) for the assistance provided in establishing the QMS geared towards achieving the ISO 9001 standard. From our initial meeting to our handover, I found his knowledge of the standard to be both vast yet accommodating particularly in the way he tailored certain clause requirements around our existing company systems. Because of such complete understanding of our way of working, the implementation of the QMS was relatively seamless as each individual section was briefed to those involved before being ‘rolled out’. Of equal benefit was the guidance and assistance in explaining the benefits of certain aspects when I experienced difficulties in conveying their purpose and requirement. I would not hesitate to seek the services of QECS in the future or to recommend them to any other party who sought certification or assistance in this field”.

“Having contracted Blair Matthew for initial client Health & Safety (Management Systems) support, we have worked in partnership, in supporting a number of business units (incl. BMW Mini Oxford). I have found his approach to be professional, friendly, and most pro-active, modifying style and communications to varying degrees of owners (from Director through to shop-floor levels). I continue to utilise QECS services as a sub-contracted resource, complementing our business offering, and would have no hesitation in recommending Blair to other businesses”.

“QECS have assisted in simplifying and re-aligning our operating standards in Gibraltar, in order to meet not only ISO 9001 (Quality) standards across our full group of companies, but also achieve ISO 22000 (Food Safety) standard, across production/ Warehousing areas. We have also used Blair Matthews’ experience in applying stringent TCCMS (The Coca-Cola Management System) requirements, improving Health, Safety and Environmental standards. We intend to continue utilising QECS support through further business improvements, and would have no hesitation in recommending Blair as an integral part of your (outsourced) Operational team”

“Having quickly understood our needs, Blair Matthew (of QECS) was able to analyse our business, and align our operations with intent of ISO 9001, and Investors in People standards; whilst not creating cumbersome ‘add-ons’ to our process controls. Instead, systems implementation has been pain free, cost-effective, and has already added value to our business, moving to a ‘certification-ready’ state in a fairly short time scale”.
