Control Cable earns ISO 9001:2008 certification


Apr 6, 2011

Control Cable Inc. announced that its Baltimore facility has earned the ISO 9001:2008 certification, through a process championed by the company's Quality Assurance Director, Rob Clement.

Over the course of a year, the company reports that Clement successfully implemented and developed the company’s Quality Management System procedures and processes in preparation for registration and certification to the ISO 9001:2008 standard. The assessment was completed in February 2011, followed by the certificate of conformity and registration, which was awarded on March 2, from BSi Management Systems.

“This is an important milestone for us,” commented Richard Meltzer, CEO of Control Cable. “A large part of our business comes from manufacturers who have chosen to outsource their cable assembly production to a U.S.-based company. Keeping manufacturing in the United States is something that Control Cable takes very seriously."

Meltzer added, "We are well aware of the price pressures that offshore manufacturers put on us but, quite frankly, U.S.-based manufacturers can’t be beat in terms of quality and delivery. Our customers choose to work with Control Cable because they trust us to get the job done. This was my motivation for attaining ISO certification -- to further communicate to our customers that we are simply the best company to choose for their cable assembly needs.”
