Intercede achieves top industry standard
Top quality accolade gives Intercede 10/10
Released: 14/09/11
Intercede (London Stock Exchange AIM: IGP), the producer of
MyID, a world-leader in identity and credential management systems,
announced today that it has secured ISO 9001 and TickIT
certification.
Intercede Limited has been approved by Lloyd's Register Quality
Assurance (LRQA) to ISO 9001 with TickIT Guide Issue 5 management
system standards. The management system is applicable to the
development of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) based software
products for identity and credential management for globally based
clients, including design, development, distribution, technical
support and maintenance in accordance with the TickIT scheme.
During the auditing process leading up to this award it was
noted by LRQA assessors that there were no non-conformities of any
kind in Intercede's management systems. This is an exceptional
achievement and demonstrates the high level of professionalism of
Intercede's employees and the robustness of its business
processes.
The award reaffirms that the MyID product suite is built and
maintained to high quality standards. Intercede's customers and
partners can be assured that all planning, control and management
processes are executed consistently and to high standards, and
investors can be confident that Intercede's business processes are
under control. Finally, Intercede staff benefit from formally
documented guidance on working practices. All this enables
Intercede to operate in a standardised and scalable way around the
world.
Richard Parris, Intercede Chairman and Chief Executive said:
"Achieving ISO 9001 compliance endorses the high calibre of
Intercede's MyID product and is a great testament to our staff.
LRQA sets a high standard for ISO 9001 certification and I am proud
that our team cleared the bar so convincingly. This is just one
part of our ongoing commitment to continuous process improvement
for the benefit of customers, partners, investors and staff. It is
further evidence that Intercede is a world-class software business
and underscores the competitive strength and resilience of our MyID
identity and credential management suite and our supporting
management processes."
Lynne Fitton of LRQA, who presented the ISO 9001 and TickIT
certificates to Intercede CEO Richard Parris, commented: "LRQA
works in partnership with its clients to help them effect real
change in their business. Intercede's achievement in securing this
prestigious quality approval demonstrates the company's commitment
to its customers and to improving its business. It also reflects
the senior management team's determination to provide clients with
a quality service and product."
