Quality Management System Consultant | ISO & API Quality Assurance

Quality Assurance and Compliance Management Consultation

Small Business Quality Assurance & Compliance Management

We believe getting certified to standards such as API Q1 and ISO 9001 should be easy and accessible to all businesses that need it to be competitive and maintain customers. TQA provides personal services for your business that meets the needs of your process and your people. Our team is here to work with you and your team to build a management system focused on what we term the “minimum viable process” so you can maintain a lean and smooth operation.

We are commonly asked "how long does it take to get certified" and "what's the process to certification look like"...? Download our Consultation & Certification Timeline Infographic.

Business leaders have two main roles-working on the big picture projects that keep the needle moving and all the time-consuming tasks that keep your wheels spinning. Your quality, safety and environmental certifications should add value to those roles without taking time away. We help you get the certifications you need to keep and gain new clients, establish SOP that reflects them, and leverage current technology. Bottom line, no surprise slow downs with the support you need for your business, your process, and your people.

Compliance consultation is provided in three tiers:

DIY Compliance Consultation only for the "do-it-yourself" team
Jump Start Compliance Consultation for rapid deployment of a management system and turn over to an existing quality/compliance manager
End to End Compliance Consultation is ideal for the team building from the ground up or looking to implement quickly and easily

During our dedicated support time, our expert will work your people to fill in the template forms to fit your processes. Then, we let you do the rest on your own, or we can follow up with Fractional Quality Management for ongoing support.

Documented Information Development

(included in Jumpstart and End to End)

Proper documentation and compliant documented information management systems are often on the bottom of the to-do lists. From the small mom & pop business to enterprise scale organizations, properly documenting procedures, specifications, and manuals is a universal need. The simple fact is that poor documentation leads to greater risk to Quality of products & services, to the Health & Safety of the people, and risk to environmental concerns. There is truth to the adage that what gets documented gets done.

Documented Information development can be paired with many of our other existing services such as TQA Cloud Quality Management Software, consultations and monthly support plans, or can be standalone to give you and your team the boost you need to reduce risk, ensure compliance and boost efficiency.
