Unmanned Traffic Management player AstraUTM has announced today its acquisition of 3 major ISO certifications for ISO 9001, ISO 27001 and ISO/IEC 20000-1, pertaining to Quality Management Systems, Information Security Management & IT Service Management, respectively.

“We are extremely proud to have achieved these internationally recognized certifications which further validate our commitment to quality, security and excellence in customer service”, said Asam Khan, CEO of AstraUTM.

Each certification is awarded based on an organization’s distinction in a given area. ISO 9001, the Quality Management System certification, honors organizations that have displayed a commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, which is judged by reviewing several metrics that include a strong customer focus, motivation of top management and continual improvement.

Likewise, the Information Security Management System certification ISO 27001 recognizes organizations that have applied best practices for information security management based on a risk management approach, while ISO/IEC 20000-1, the IT Service Management System certification, acknowledges organizations that have demonstrated excellence in best practices implementation for IT service management, based upon a process approach.

“Aviation clients are one of the most demanding across industries – in terms of assurance and compliance,” said AstraUTM CCO Ayhan Kamil. “Achieving these certifications required a comprehensive review of AstraUTM’s processes and procedures across all departments and functions. Having achieved these certifications goes a long way in proving our commitment to delivering excellence.”
