The ISO 9001 Awareness & Internal Audit Programme conducted at the National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI), Nagpur, from 23–24 June 2025, marked an important step in strengthening participants’ understanding of quality management practices. Organised on behalf of the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), the two-day training brought together professionals committed to improving their organisational processes and aligning them with globally recognised standards.
Faculty of the programme: -
The programme was led by two distinguished experts from KMA Global Mr. Ajay Kumar Bhatnagar, CMD and Former Senior Director at BIS, and Mr. Mahim Jain, CEO and Former Deputy Director General at BIS. Their extensive experience in ISO standards, auditing, and quality management offered participants practical insights that extended well beyond theoretical learning.
Learning Outcomes of the ISO 9001 Awareness & Audit Programme
Throughout the sessions, attendees were introduced to the core principles of ISO 9001: Quality Management Systems, including risk-based thinking, process approach, documentation requirements, and the role of leadership in driving quality initiatives. The training also emphasised the importance of internal audits as a tool for continual improvement. Participants gained hands-on understanding of audit planning, conducting audits objectively, recording observations, and identifying areas for corrective actions.
The interactive format encouraged discussions on real operational challenges and helped participants connect ISO 9001 requirements with their day-to-day work. By the end of the programme, attendees were better equipped to support their organisations in implementing, maintaining, and enhancing a robust Quality Management System.
This engagement reflects KMA Global’s ongoing commitment to promoting management system excellence and empowering institutions like NEERI with the knowledge needed to strengthen quality and compliance practices.
