CAD Schroer Customers Rate Software Support as “Excellent”
CAD Schroer’s software support team has just gained the ISO 9001 stamp of approval for its quality management systems, with 5-star customer ratings. It joins the training department, which gained its ISO certification in 2009.
Cambridge, UK and Pittsford, NY – 22 May 2013: Engineering software provider CAD Schroer has always counted on quality. In 2009, its training centre achieved ISO 9001:2008 certification. Now the support team is also quality certified, and has just received an “excellent” rating from customers.
CAD Schroer, developer and supplier of design and data management software for manufacturers and engineers around the world, also provides standard as well as bespoke training, technical support, development and consultancy services. In order to highlight their commitment to customers and quality, CAD Schroer’s teams have worked hard to gain DIN EN ISO 9001:2008 certification.
ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management
Among other requirements, the ISO 9001:2008 quality management systems standard expects organisations to effectively meet the needs of their customers, and constantly review and optimise business processes. These and other important quality criteria were independently assessed by TÜV Nord in Germany, which especially commended the high degree of customer orientation in all of CAD Schroer’s existing processes, where customer feedback has always been critical for product and service optimisation.
Certification for Hotline and Technical Support Services
“This official ISO certification allows us to show the outside world the commitment that we have always taken for granted, such as the need to listen to customers and follow through with constant improvements,” says Markus Bertram, Head of CAD Schroer’s training department and Quality Assurance Manager for support and services. “As part of the certification process for our hotline and technical support services, we were evaluated on our customer feedback. Our customers were asked to rate all completed support enquiries. During the first customer feedback after the official TÜV certification our customers ranked us with the highest mark of “excellent” in all four categories (problem solved; reaction time; staff competence level; and general satisfaction with the service provided). In the feedback we have had since then, we’ve continued to have five-star (“excellent”) ratings of 70% across all categories, with the remaining 30% receiving four stars. So I just want to say ‘well done and keep it up!’ to all of my colleagues in the support team.”
