Making the call during the formal presentation of the certificate of conformity of the International Organization for Standardization 9001:2015 Quality Management System Certification to Afrimedical Manufacturing and Supplies Limited, the Director-General, SON, Mr. Farouk A. Salim, said innovative approaches were essential to the medical device manufacturing sector.
The DG said Afrimedical had joined a few privileged classes of ISO 9001:2015 QMS-certified organizations in the medical device manufacturing sector in Nigeria. Even as he noted that the medical device manufacturing sector is undergoing rapid transformation, driven by changing end-user requirements and global trends, he argued that the changes, however, also bring a host of new opportunities and a range of new challenges.
“Implementing the ISO 9001:2015 system certification is a demonstration of your management system’s conformity to internationally acceptable standard requirements and the ability of Afrimedical Manufacturing and Supplies Limited to get it right the first time and always,” he said. In a response, the Deputy Managing Director, of Mikano International Ltd., Ziad Sayeed, said the commitment to excellence has always been the cornerstone of Afrimedical’s success.
