| Commitment to Quality |
|
CGGVeritas is committed to working in partnership with our clients and suppliers to achieve the vision of being the international leading partner in developing natural resources through geophysics. Through our Quality Management System, based on a foundation of the ISO9001:2008 international standard, we strive to provide our clients with the highest possible levels of quality and value.
To support our commitments, a strong and visible CGGVeritas management has developed a thriving 'quality culture' providing an environment and resources to enable our employees to operate effectively, expand their competencies and grow within the company. Through our efforts we aim to strengthen our levels of customer satisfaction and drive down our costs associated with non-quality by 50% over three years. These goals will be achieved through setting stringent performance targets, systematically gathering customer feedback and encouraging our employees to contribute to field improvement programs throughout the CGGVeritas organization. To ensure our long-term sustainability, CGGVeritas also strives to pursue mutually beneficial relationships with our key suppliers. This partnership creates value and delivers performance improvements that further strengthen our products and services and provide a platform from which to deliver exceptional levels of customer satisfaction. |
