We understand the times companies are going through these days and how the bottom line matters more than ever. We also realize that resources are tight and that a consulting group needs to "do it all". That is why we have decided to hold our costs to our clients to the 2008 rates and to be in a position to do the work whether it be writing procedures, calibrating equipment, creating databases, training, you name it, we do it all. Our clients will receive the same effective expertise and professionalism from our consultants. We only win when our clients win, we understand that and we are here for you.

We are the one business that focuses on value added at a low cost to our customers! Our business was established in 1994, and we pride ourselves on providing customers with outstanding customer service and very reasonable rates. We have offices in Massachusetts and New Hampshire and all consultants have a minimum of 15 years experience in their respective areas of expertise and many have substantially more. These include Quality Assurance and Environmental Management Systems, Software Asset Management, Software License and Maintenance Contact Negotiations, Negotiations with Utility Companies, Data Center Management and Optimization, IT Security, Sarbanes-Oxley Act Compliance, Electronic Documentation Systems, Electronic CAPA Systems, Electronic Record Management Programs, and much more. We are your "One Consultant Company for All Aspects of Business Improvement".

In addition to working on location for our clients, we hold holding workshops and courses in the Boston area for companies looking to upgrade from their ISO 9001 system to ISO 13485. We will be showing the dates and locations of the courses at least 1 month in advance on this web site. You can also contact us at qualitysystem@comcast.net to inquire as to the next course. Minimum signup is 8 participants.

Whether you need to implement a management system to comply with ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 14001, AS9100, ISO 19770-1, ISO 27001 or FDA cGMP we are ready to help. Not only do we have the resources to facilitate the implementation of quality management systems, we also have the expertise to help you with training, internal auditing, database development, process and instrument validation and so much more. We are unlike most quality management consultation businesses in that we have experienced consultants for every aspect of your company's needs. We pride ourselves as being able to provide consultation and implementation resources for all of your needs, at a cost that will not break your budget. Our focus is on value-added processes and we avoid the bureaucracy that slows down progress.

Providing outstanding service means taking time to listen. We work with you every step of the way to ensure you receive the services you expect and avoid the bureaucracy many quality systems incorporate. Our business is client-oriented and we maintain strict confidentiality.

A Little Humor, by Katie Adams, Reader's Digest June 2009:

I was on the computer in my home office when my 8 year old son asked what I did for work. “I am a consultant,” I said. “What’s a consultant?” he asked. “It’s someone who watches people work and then tells them how they can do it better.” “We have people like that in my class,” he said, “but we call them pests.”

Lyrics of Song Playing:

Quality Man Blues

People ask who I am, people ask what I do

I answer the best that I can but sometimes it's hard to get through

At the end of the day there is no better way to say what I'm going to say

I'm a Quality Man

I am what I am, I'm telling you

I am with a capital "Q" - a Quality Man

I'm a Quality Man

In a previous life I was witty, creative and a joy to have lunch with

I've grown so much less since I joined QMS and I'll tell you that it wasn't a fun switch

But it's all signed and dated, and I-S-O rated, I'm fully validated

As a Quality Man

I am what I am, I'm telling you

Certified with a capital "Q" - I'm a Quality Man

I'm a Quality Man

Now some girls just wanna have fun, they settle for 9001

Other women are driven to strive, they go 13-4-85

My standards are all documented, you'll get from me just what you're told

I won't change without notification, I'm version controlled

I'm your Quality Man

I am what I am, I'm telling you

I am with a capital "Q" - a Quality Man

I'm your Quality Man

I'm not saying I'm perfect, but continuously I've improved

With several exceptions and numbered exemptions, all my deviations are approved

I've been scanned by an audit - I sold it, they bought it - just one finding I successfully fought it

I'm a Quality Man

I am what I am, I'm telling you,

My CAPA'a are minor and few - I'm a Quality Man

I'm a Quality Man

Good quality men are rare, so if you got one you'd best treat him right

Or maybe one day he'll stand up and say he can't abide by the guidelines you cite

Then just like words in that taxi cab song you won't know what you've got til he's gone

Goodbye Quality Man

Running footloose and fancy free

He will be with a capital "E," your Ex-Quality Man

Ex-Quality Man

Quality Man
