SQA Partners Certified to the ISO 9001:2000 Standard by BVQI

Certification to this most advanced standard confirms that SQA Partners' management, software testing and development processes meet the highest standard of quality demanded by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). SQA Partners is among less than 700 companies that were certified by ISO 9001:2000 in Estonia.

ISO 9001:2000 is the international quality system standard that was revised in the year 2000 to ensure the registered companies provide increased value through applying documented continual improvement processes. The revised standard applies to all sectors, products, and organizations. ISO 9001:2000 has replaced the old series of standards published in 1994.

"Certifying our company to ISO 9001 proves our commitment to quality and – as a benchmark – allows measuring our progress towards continual improvement of business performance. Our aim is being a leading outsourcing company in the field of testing. This stimulates us to use the latest technologies and to follow the highest quality standard," - said Mr. Anton Iljin, SQA Partners Ltd. CEO.
