All Business Wire news

Premier Power Renewable Energy PPRW, a global leader in the development, design, engineering and construction of solar power systems for commercial, government and utility markets in the U.S., Spain and Italy, announced today that Premier Power has achieved ISO certification for its Italian subsidiary. This certification is an international quality management standard focused on fulfilling customer requirements, enhancing customer satisfaction and continually improving business performance.

The ISO 9001:2008 certification makes Premier Power one of the first fully integrated engineering, procurement, construction (EPC) and development firms to be ISO 9001 certified. This means that Premier Power’s quality management system has passed the rigorous external audit required by the ISO 9001 standards. The three-year certification gives Premier a unique competitive advantage among EPC companies in the solar arena.

“We are honored to have earned this certification, which is extremely rare among solar EPC firms,” said Miguel de Anquin, chief operating officer of Premier Power. “For us ISO 9001 compliance is an on-going process, as our quality management, rigorous solar plant engineering and proactive customer service promote continuous improvement within the company. The ISO 9001 certification, in conjunction with Premier's high customer satisfaction rate, demonstrates our strong commitment to the highest quality design, engineering and construction of our solar systems. The ISO’s stamp of approval assures our customers that we are providing them the highest quality and most reliable solar systems.”

"The ISO 9001 certification embraces all aspects of our activity, including development, design, engineering, procurement, construction, sales, operations and maintenance,” said Franco Pulitano, quality assurance manager at Premier Power. “Everybody talks about Total Quality Management, but Premier’s ISO 9001 certification validates that we have achieved the highest objective measure of quality in all of our core processes and assures we will consistently deliver high yield solar power plants that will perform as specified for the next 25 years and more."
