British Assessment Bureau, which is part of the Amtivo Group, is delighted to announce the acquisition of the certification business side of QCS International, as of 26th February 2021.
Founded on 8 August 2001, QUALITY CERTIFICATION SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL LIMITED (QCS) has a long-standing relationship with British Assessment Bureau, acting as an Agent and issuing certification for a range of UKAS-accredited standards under license from British Assessment Bureau. As a result, both the clients and team are already familiar with the organisation.
Commenting on the acquisition, Chief Revenue Officer, Paul Levett, said “We are very pleased to be able to welcome the clients and team from QCS International into the growing family at British Assessment Bureau. Having worked with them for some time it is clear that this will benefit everyone concerned, offering a wider range of services to QCS’ clients and expanding our coverage in the UK. Meanwhile, we look forward to welcoming the QCS team onboard and leveraging their vast experience in the ISO certification market”.
Lucinda Parfitt, the company’s Director explained “We have worked so well with British Assessment Bureau over the years that we already felt like part of the family. Therefore, when we were approached to discuss the opportunity to join the UK’s fast-growing and most exciting ISO certification providers, it was an easy decision to make.” Lucinda, continued “Being able to offer our clients a wider range of services and the support of a much larger team, can only be a good outcome for all concerned.”
This deal represents the sixth acquisition by Amtivo Group over the past two years and demonstrates the Group’s commitment to offering its clients the best possible range of products and services, supported by some of the best expertise in the market.
Paul Levett continued “The past year has been an incredibly tough time for most industries, globally; however we have weathered the storm extremely well, adapting our services to ensure our clients are able to maintain their certification and increasing the range of products we offer in support of their desire to achieve business excellence and improve operational efficiency. As a result, we continue to seek opportunities that will enable us to deliver ever more and ever better solutions for our clients.”
