The Saudi Oger Quality Management System (QMS) describes the "Construction, Operation & Maintenance" activities with reference to the ISO 9001:2000 Standard.
Scrupulous investigations of existing processes, to address the scope of the QMS, were carried out to define the needed documents. These processes cover activities starting at the bidding stages, to understand the Customer's requirements, and ending with the completion of the works to the Customer utmost satisfaction, including related management activities, provision of resources, planning and product realization.
The Quality Management System exemplifies the Management's commitment towards the quality of products delivered to its customers. The QMS is designed to permanently:
- Determine customer needs and specify them in the form of defined requirements for the organization,
- Determine, plan, carry out, monitor and adapt the service realization processes,
- Expand the range of corporate experience & expertise,
- Review its performance to streamline internal processes, optimise efficiency and bring forth improvements.
- Considerable efforts are ongoing to monitor, measure, analyse these processes and institute improvements to the Quality Management System.
