Quality Assurance

FoundOcean has been DNV-accredited to ISO 9001 Quality Assurance standards since 2006. We undertake extensive grout testing procedures to guarantee the quality of the material that we mix and pump, during both offshore projects and onshore trials. By standardising our processes, we manage our work more efficiently and reduce project risks. Our people use these standards themselves on a daily basis, and train new staff to use them too. Regular audits help us continually adjust and improve our approach.

All our policies are reviewed annually to monitor effectiveness and to ensure the process of continual improvement is maintained.
