Having satisfied necessary requirements in the scope of passengers, Ramp, Cargo, Warehouse handling and other aviation related services, Skyway Aviation Handling Company (SAHCO) has been awarded International Organization for Standardization (ISO 9001:2015) certificate for Quality Management System.
The certificate is an international standard recognition that identifies requirements for Quality Management System (QMS) which organisations use to demonstrate their ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customers’ and regulatory requirements.
The ISO certificate presented by West Sealand International Nigeria Limited (WSI) to SAHCO and endorsed by the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) a worldwide association that is interested in conformity assessment in the fields of management systems, products, processes, services, personnel, validation and verification and other similar programmes of conformity assessment; is expected to expire in 2025
While speaking at the presentation ceremony, Mr. Basil Agboarumi, Managing Director of SAHCO noted that SAHCO is used to undergoing audits for international certifications and is glad that the ISO 9001:2015 certification came to reality.
He affirmed that as an aviation ground handling company, SAHCO always ensured its IATA Safety Audit for Ground Operations (ISAGO) certification is up-to-date and that SAHCO is RA 3 certified which is a requirement for all European bound freight handlers.
He appreciated Co workers for making the achievement a reality within a shorter period.
“Being ISO certified shows that SAHCO is indeed committed to providing safe, speedy, and efficient services to the satisfaction of all clients and would-be clients,” Basil said.
Also speaking at the event, the Chief Executive Officer of WSI, Mr. Ope Balogun expressed appreciation towards all staff of SAHCO, saying he is proud to be associated with SAHCO, that not all organisations that start the ISO 9001:2015 complete the process.
Balogun maintained, “This achievement shows the level of commitment and dedication of all staff towards ensuring a scaled through process for the certificate. It depicted Cordial relationship between the head and all subordinates of the company.”
