ISOmetrix Inc Information

ISOMetrix started out as a side business in 1999 when the owner (JM Beck) was working full time at a large aerospace company managing the ISO compliance group and working as a key member in improving relationships between the company and their main customer. To maintain Certified Auditor credentials through the IRCA and RAB (at the time), audits were performed outside of the full time employer which is where the company got its start. During one of these “outside audits,” the small company being evaluated did not fully understand the particular standard in which they were seeking registration against, nor did they have a good plan to get a system in place. To make matters worse, this company had already hired an agency to help prior to the audit, and they actually overcharged and underperformed. The owner of this small company had to become registered in a very limited time schedule in order to be awarded a contract that would make or break the business. The owner contacted Mr. Beck, and that is when he discovered that there is a market for helping small to medium sized companied understand and implement ISO-based management systems. Not in a “mass-producing” method, but in a one-on-one environment training and developing systems that are specific to each client at a reasonable cost. We were able to assist this company in achieving registration and being awarded that contract along with many others and they are still a client to this day. In 2002, BTC Services (Beck Training and Consulting) was formed to do just that. It stayed that way until business demanded additional work force to help with the growth, and in 2005, BTC was incorporated into ISOMetrix. Our belief is that a well implemented management system cannot be effective when it is purchased as a “canned system” or downloaded from other companies existing systems. Whether it is quality, environmental, safety or recycling; a management is specific to each company and must be drafted in the same method.
