OREANDA-NEWS. April 19, 2012. During the last week of April, KAMAZ will pass the certification audit of Quality Management System (QMS) carried out by Russian Register Certification Association, as a result of which the company should receive a certificate of QMS complying with ISO 9001: 2008, GOST 9001-2008 and GOST RV 15.002-2003.

The QMS certification provides an opportunity of concluding agreements (contracts) for delivery of products, including state contracts (with the Ministry of Defence, EMERCOM, the Ministry of Internal Affairs). After that, a company is successfully audited for product certification. The level of confidence in this company, as a business partner, and investors’ interest in it is growing. And it entails the growth of investments to develop capacities and improve manufacturing processes of the company. In addition, the QMS certification will increase the level of confidence on the part of law firms protecting interests of organizations if there are any complaints from clients. Businesses with certified QMS can improve their image, enhance positions in the global market, and grow stronger among competitors.

The audit will be held for the first time after KAMAZ made organizational and structural changes in 2011. It should be recalled that in August, four enterprises of the single cycle of KAMAZ trucks production became structural units of OJSC KAMAZ again. Three of them regained their old historical names – Engine Plant, Press and Stamping Plant, Tool and Repair Plant; and KAMAZ-Metallurgy OJSC was reorganized into Metallurgical Complex.
