HOUSTON, TX, January 18, 2013 (Press-News.org) Advanced Containment Systems, Inc. (ACSI) achieved certification to ISO 9001:2008 assisted by QUALACO, Inc. a leading Quality Consulting firm.

Advanced Containment Systems, Inc. (ACSI) designs and manufactures products to address the restroom and shower trailer, homeland security, abatement, and military industries. Their technology was initially developed to support collection and cleanup of hazardous materials associated with the nuclear and chemical industries. That heavy duty high quality manufacturing technology transcends across ACSI's entire product offering. ACSI is now well into their second decade of operations with two locations in Houston, corporate headquarters and fabrication facilities. The operations currently are housed in approximately two hundred and fifty thousand square feet of building. And the facilities are designed to facilitate the manufacturing process and allow rapid expansion as customer demands dictate.

Qualaco, Inc., a Quality Consulting firm, assisted with this 9 month quality initiative. According to Marie Giordano of Qualaco, Inc.." ISO registration supports ACSI's pursuit of continuous improvement and an on-going commitment to provide customers assurance of product quality; ACSI's success in achieving this goal is due to the tremendous dedication and teamwork of the management and employees. This dedication proved to be invaluable throughout the implementation process."

ISO 9001:2008 applies to industries involved in the design and development, manufacturing, installation, and servicing of products. The ISO certification process ensures on-going compliance to standards of performance because, once certified, companies are externally audited for continuous execution of the standards.

Conformance to ISO 9001:2008 quality assurance standards required the implementation of procedural changes, training, increased documentation, and adjustments to operating systems on every level of the manufacturing process. For any government contractor and GSA contract holder, this quality system is invaluable, and assures compliance to requirements and standards.
