Nation's Largest Truckload Carrier Earns ISO 9001:2000 Recertification
Schneider National, Inc., a premier provider of transportation, logistics and intermodal services, and its subsidiary, Schneider Logistics, have once again secured a position among an exclusive group of companies by recently receiving ISO 9001:2000 certification. Schneider National locations in Green Bay, Wis., and Farmington Hills, Mich., were included in the certification. The International Organization for Standardization has awarded Schneider this prestigious certification since 1998.
"In today's competitive landscape, the ability to retain and attract customers hinges on our commitment to deliver on our promises and continue searching for new ways to take our services to the next level," said Erin VanZeeland, vice president, business transportation. "Clearly, meeting the international standards created by ISO for the past nine years means we are living this commitment."
ISO 9001:2000 helps both product- and service-oriented organizations achieve standards of quality that are recognized and respected all over the world. The international standard provides a trusted framework for an effective quality management system that helps ensure consistency and improvement in working practices that meet the requirements of business as well as the broader needs of a globally-minded society.
"The globalization of Schneider National creates additional opportunities to demonstrate our ongoing dedication to quality service and customer satisfaction," added VanZeeland. "Being awarded the ISO 9001:2000 certification by the world's largest developer and publisher of international standards speaks volumes about Schneider National's capabilities and continued efforts to service our customers' needs in the United States and abroad."
To be considered for the certification, Schneider National successfully completed an external audit analyzing its processes and Quality Management System. ABS Quality Evaluations, an accredited third-party registrar, determined that Schneider National continues to meet the needs of the standard, in accordance with ISO 9001:2000 guidelines.
