• Guaranteeing that all mandatory requirements with regard to the systems supplied are fully met
  
  
• Constantly monitoring the Customer’s level of satisfaction in order to improve perceived Quality;
  
  
• Implementing the monitoring of processes, the continuous improvement of the QMS and the reduction of inefficiencies in the undertaking’s organisational and technical management;

• Meet client needs by:
  • Guaranteeing compliance with contractual, technical, qualitative requirements;
  • Increasing the reliability of products and services;
  • Consolidating customer satisfaction;

  • Making available adequate resources (structures, means, systems, equipment, machinery and devices) with efficacious management of investments;
  • Ensuring a high level of maintenance, safety and reliability of the available means;
  • Guaranteeing an employee-friendly work environment;
  • Maintaining a high supplier level of performance.

  • Encourage the solution of problems and preventive action;
  • Systematically measure performance to increase results;
  • Consolidate the company’s structure and size;
  • Increase the number of customers and understand the market’s needs.

Storti Spa has identified the external and internal factors that are important for its purposes and strategic principles and which affect its ability to achieve the expected results of its Quality Management System. This assessment can be found in the Management Review document, updated at least once a year or whenever the factors analysed change.
This analysis leads to the consequent re-assessment of the risk analysis and to the subsequent improvement plan.
