Steppe Metal Powder LLC (SMP), based in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, has announced it recently achieved ISO 9001:2015 certification for its quality management system. The certification was awarded after an extensive audit of the company’s processes, procedures and systems by an independent third-party assessor.
ISO 9001 is an internationally recognised standard for quality management that provides a framework for organisations to improve customer satisfaction, reduce waste and increase efficiency. By achieving this certification, the company reports it has demonstrated a commitment to delivering high-quality products and services to customers, while continuously improving its operations.
“This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team,” stated Askhar Bakyei, CEO of SMP. “We are committed to delivering the best possible products and services to our customers, and this certification is a clear demonstration of that commitment.”
SMP was established in 2017 and operates the country’s first ever metal powder production plant in Ulaanbaatar. The company uses London Metal Exchange (LME) Grade A copper certified by an internationally credited laboratory to produce and sell water atomised copper and copper alloy powders.
“We are excited about the opportunities that this certification will bring,” added Undrakh Nergui, CPO of SMP. “It is a clear signal to our customers that we are committed to quality and that they can trust us to deliver the best possible products and services.”
SMP also announced it plans to pursue ISO 45001 and 17025 certifications for its occupational health and safety management system and its laboratory testing and calibration services, respectively.
