MacArthur: "We can now expand the list of products we offer our customers, and handle more scheduled orders, because whereas our dealings with some organizations were formerly limited to sole source contracts, now they can come to us for anything."
Criveau: "ISO Certification for 1-Source shows a solid commitment to conformance, quality, and continual improvement. It bolsters company morale, improves teamwork, and builds trust on an internal level between core departments."
MacArthur: "As a result of ISO certification, we can now have full AVL [Approved Vendor List] status, rather than provisional AVL status, with elite manufacturers, government contractors, government agencies, aviation, automotive, and large capital equipment manufacturers who require ISO certification for their approved vendors."
