Tecmark Achieves ISO 9001 Accreditation

Posted on December 11th, 2009 in News.

At Tecmark Systems Ltd, we’re absolutely thrilled to have recently obtained ISO 9001 certification.

The ISO 9001 is a globally recognised management standard. There are currently 1 million organisations worldwide, across 170 countries who have achieved the standard. In order to meet the requirements for this accreditation, an organisation must implement and practice high quality processes and operations within the company, which then in turn ensure the provision of high quality, efficient services for its clients.

It has been a huge priority for Tecmark, right from the outset, to ensure that processes both internally and externally meet incredibly high standards. To have obtained the ISO 9001 certification confirms that we meet such standards and this is a major milestone for us, as noted by Managing Director, Richard Heyes.

‘We’re absolutely delighted to have obtained this certification. To have achieved the ISO 9001 puts us in a great position as we move forwards and continue to grow. It ensures that we already have the right operations in place and that our clients are getting the best from us through the entire process.’

Tecmark’s ISO 9001 certification was awarded at the end of November 2009.

Tecmark and Trafford College Team Up

Posted on September 5th, 2009 in News.

 Manchester’s aspiring developers and digital media specialists are to be offered a unique opportunity to take part in the conceptualisation and development of a functional iPhone application. The project will see Trafford College students and Tecmark iPhone developers join forces for three months in order to create an iPhone app for a Tecmark client.

Mobile applications are proving cutting edge in the world of digital marketing and for the talented young developers at Trafford College, the opportunity will engage them fully in the creation of an app right from thinking up the idea and the functionality to applying this to meet the requirements of a business client.

Tecmark director, Kevin Jones notes that “The number of enquiries we are receiving in regard to iPhone app development projects is incredible. This is such a massively growing area with lots of potential and plenty of scope for creativity. We’re really looking forward to working with a group of innovative, young developers on one of the projects.”

The collaboration will see Tecmark developers offer workshops at Trafford College before students are given a brief around which to think up their own application idea. Students will then have the opportunity to pitch their ideas to Tecmark’s directors, Richard Heyes and Kevin Jones, before receiving feedback with which to further develop their concept. Tecmark will then invite the students into its city centre offices, where the most promising ideas will be revisited. The ultimate aim is to turn one of these concepts into a functioning application for a client.

The opportunity will provide hands on experience to students in a real business environment and an insight into the ever developing world of mobile applications and their uses in digital marketing.
