Clark Freeport — The Clark International Airport Corporation on Friday announced that it has retained its ISO 9001:2015 certification as it assured anew that the government aviation firm complies with international standards.
CIAC president Arrey Perez narrated that CIAC hurdled the third-party recertification audit conducted on 28 November by certifying body TÜV Rheinland, stressing that it showed the effectiveness of CIAC's management system.
"This is an essential tool we need to achieve corporate objectives, including the process of building various infrastructure development projects at the Clark civil aviation complex," said Perez on its management system.
The day-long audit was conducted by the four-person TÜV Rheinland audit team, which assessed the CIAC's conformity to the ISO 9001:2015 standard and measure the management's ability to meet applicable statutory, regulatory and contractual requirements.
The audit team declared no non-conformities, nine positive findings and 11 Opportunities for Improvement for the agency.
"The recertification is a testament of the organization's continuous efforts to ensure its operations and activities are at par with global quality assurance and business standards," Perez said.
He added the CIAC will continue to conduct capacity-building for its personnel "to ensure continuous improvement as we strive for excellence in providing quality service."
ISO 9001:2015 is an international standard dedicated to quality management systems — the combined processes resources, assets and corporate values that exceed customer expectations and promotes organizational efficiency and continual improvement.
The CIAC is tasked to develop and manage the civil aviation complex in Clark and was first certified ISO 9001:2008 in 2010 for its International Passenger Facilitation Process when it was still operating the Clark International Airport.
However, following the privatization of the airport, the scope of the ISO certification now covers the CIAC's estate management business.
