EXTREME NETWORKS ACHIEVES ISO 9001:2000 CERTIFICATION
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is a global federation of national standards bodies. ISO 9001:2000 certification represents strict adherence to the highest standards and practices through documented procedures that cover all key business processes, monitoring systems to ensure business process effectiveness, thorough record-keeping, and quality monitoring systems facilitating continual improvement in the organization.
Extreme Networks ISO certification marks satisfactory completion to a year-long project preparing the organization for the independent ISO audit by TÜV SÜD America.
“Extreme Networks has demonstrated itself as an organization where the application of ISO 9001, throughout its headquarters and design centers, is focused on both improving business effectiveness and increasing efficiency,” said Hermann Ries, Lead Auditor from TÜV SÜD America. “From the CEO and president and on down to all employees, there is a pervasive energy to deliver on the intent of the ISO requirements in their processes to make the business more capable at meeting increasing customer demands for excellence. This summarizes why TÜV America has recommended Extreme Networks for certification to the ISO 9001:2000 standard on their initial certification audit.”
"The completion of ISO certification is a key milestone that matches our organization-wide commitment to quality standards and excellence that will resonate well with our many global partners and customers,” said Mark Canepa, president and CEO of Extreme Networks. “We are very pleased to have achieved our goal of ISO 9001:200 compliance and look forward to continually improving our business processes in the years ahead.”
