Polaris Training & Development Systems has developed an understanding with Jeff Ayres and Associates, in the provision of measurement, analysis, and process improvements. These services can be provided within the framework of the EFQM © or the BQF Business Excellence Model.

Additionally this understanding includes the provision of management systems including quality, environmental, health and safety and any other necessary elements to meet specific company needs, without seeking certification to any of the international or national certification schemes. For the company that simply wishes to improve its performance and to reduce its running costs, custom made processes and procedures can be designed, together with staff training and coaching at a very reasonable cost. Jeff Ayres and Associates site address is listed in our links page.

Join the ever growing number of organisations who have elected to introduce fully integrated systems, meeting the requirements of The Quality Management Standard (ISO9001), plus the Environmental Management Standard (ISO14001) and also the Occupational Health and Safety Standard (OHSAS18001). One management system with many overlapping processes. One set of documents with one third party audit. More control, less effort - call me.
