ApPello successfully renewed it’s ISO certification, which justifies our energies invested in quality assurance.

During the ISO review process that took place in late May, the auditors only suggested minor improvements in the ApPello ISO documentation, concerning our training plans and the post-calculation of estimates.

During the audit the company's documentation and administrative arrangements, and the accomplishment of these in case of a selected project (planning, project management and administration) were studied. The company is taking the obligations related to the certification very seriously and considers the ISO as an opportunity for continuous quality improvement. These have contributed largely to the success of the audit.

Maintaining the quality requires the ongoing work and attention of all of us; besides the ISO regulation, several of our activities are aiming this. Our colleagues regularly recommend changes and improvements regarding our processes and documentation.

Apart from the human factor, we are also trying to create the technical conditions for quality work: we use various tools to facilitate our work e.g. for automatic testing, and in the near future, new software will help us in database design and in the management of requirements.
