While the EFQM Excellence Model goes above and beyond the realms of ISO 9001:2015, there is a huge commercial advantage in attaining *both*.

In partnership with our friends at [Quality Scotland](https://www.qualityscotland.co.uk/), Ron Rivans of the Scottish Quality Management Centre will present a one hour webinar this Friday afternoon (29th July at 2.00pm Edinburgh time) explaining the benefits and similarities of both systems; including how Deming's P-D-C-A cycle ([Plan - Do - Check - Act](https://www.sqmc.co.uk/news/blog/iso-9001-2015-5-key-changes-to-look-out-for)) utilised in ISO-based business systems aligns with the RADAR (Results - Approach - Development - Assessment - Review) approach of the Excellence Model.

In essence, if your organisation has already achieved EFQM levels, it should be a rather straight forward - and natural - progression to become ISO 9001:2015 Registered ([with a government - UKAS - accredited Certification Body](https://www.sqmc.co.uk/about/certification-and-accreditation)), and all the extra tendering clout that this brings.

**Although this free webinar is intended for *Quality Scotland* members only, they have kindly granted permission for us to extend the invitation to SQMC's own clients and readers.**
