Al Masaood Power Division, the exclusive distributor of MTU, Leroy Somer and Volvo Penta products and integrated power systems in the UAE and Bahrain, has been successfully recertified for ISO 9001:2015, ISO 45001:2018 and ISO 14001:2015.

The Al Masaood Group’s power generation and marine propulsion systems company said that the Bureau Veritas, which conducted the recertification audit, awarded the certificates to it for “consistent efforts to enhance its management system, increase the efficiency of its organisational and operational processes and implement internationally recognised practices to promote a safe and secure work environment”.

ISO 9001:2015 is the global standard focusing on Quality Management System (QMS) whilst ISO 45001:2018 pertains to requirements designed to improve occupational health and safety (OHS), eliminate hazards, and minimise OHS-related risks, said Al Masaood Power Division in its statement.

Additionally, ISO 14001:2015 lays out the requirements for a company’s environmental management system to improve its environmental performance.

AL Masaood added that retaining ISO 9001:2015 also demonstrates the company’s commitment to meet customer and regulatory requirements, especially in terms of providing the highest standards of sales and aftersales solutions specific to its product range.

Ihab Awadallah, Abu Dhabi country chief executive at Bureau Veritas, said: “Since 1828, Bureau Veritas’ mission has been to shape a world of trust. We create value for our clients by providing services that enable them to continually improve their business performance and mitigate risk in a fast-changing world.

“We congratulate Al Masaood Power for attaining the renewal of the ISO 9001 Quality Management System, ISO 14001 Environmental Management System and ISO 45001 Health & Safety Management System certifications. With these certifications, the company shows their commitment to improve risk management, how they place occupational health and safety at the heart of their business and incorporating environmental considerations into business strategy.”

Rasso Bartenschlager, general manager, Al Masaood Power, said: “We prioritise the sustained provision of world-class and sustainable services and products, whilst advancing the interest of our employees, customers, partners, and other stakeholders.

“The renewal of our ISO 9001:2015, ISO 45001:2018 and ISO 14001:2015 certifications show that we are on the right track in terms of fulfilling this commitment. After obtaining a seal of safety and efficiency stamped by the globally recognised Bureau Veritas, we are further motivated to pursue continuous enhancement efforts within our processes to sustain business excellence, quality, and ensure the highest satisfaction of our customers.
