Quality Policy:
We exceed customer expectations through our commitment to continuous improvement, and a thorough understanding of customer needs.
ISO 9001:2015 Registered:
ISO is the universally accepted accreditation standard for organizational efficiency, consistency, and dedicated quality service, with the primary goal of total customer satisfaction. It is the foundation for our quality management system and customer-first philosophy.
Superior Results & Managed Risk:
Well-run, quality organizations have innovative methods of providing value to their customers. Through our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system, supported by LEAN manufacturing principles, Visions is able to focus on providing the highest levels of quality assurance and risk management. Key client benefits are:
- Focused on prevention rather than detection.
- Create consistency throughout all processes.
- Improved performance.
- Lessens dependency on key individuals.
- Provides blueprint for controlled, disciplined growth.
- Ensures consistent training.
- Improved management oversight.
cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practices):
cGMP refers to the Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations enforced by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). cGMPs provide a framework for quality management systems to assure proper control and monitoring of manufacturing processes and facilities. Visions subscribes to these practices as well as other regulatory guidelines to ensure the delivery of superior results for our customers.
LEAN Manufacturer
The integration of LEAN manufacturing practices include:
- Hearing the customer.
- Standardized processes/communication.
- Continuous improvement.
- Elimination of waste (MUDA).
HIPAA Compliant
As an extension of our Security Policy and value add to our customers, Visions is also HIPAA compliant. HIPAA, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, sets the standard for protecting sensitive patient data; in compliance with HIPAA requirements, when handling protected health information (PHI), we ensure that all the physical, network, and process security measures are in place, up to date, and operational. Our processes create a “right the first time” attitude, and a positive culture of continuous improvement throughout our organization.
SSAE 16: SOC 2 Type 2
Visions has successfully completed the audit process, and our current information security policy is aligned with the requirements of SSAE 16: SOC 2 Type 2 protocol as well as our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system and cGMP. These policies ensure:
- The preservation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer information.
- The protection of information and information systems from unauthorized access.
- That only authorized users have access to sensitive customer information.
- The protection of sensitive information by minimizing the risks of exposing this information to unauthorized parties.
- That all data transfers, execution of data processing, and amendment and/or purchasing of proprietary customer data is secure and protected.
- That facility access is controlled – locked down and protected with security protocol and cameras.
