All Con-Way companies awarded certification for ISO 9001 and 14001 (May 29, 2003)

Con-Way Transportation Services announced yesterday that all seven of its operating units in North America have achieved ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications.

The certifications apply to the company’s less-than-truckload (LTL), emergency/expedite shipping, logistics and warehousing, air freight forwarding, truckload brokerage, and intermodal service operations.

The certifications were granted by AQSR, an independent, approved registrar credentialed by the Registrar Accreditation Board of the Switzerland-based International Organization of Standards (ISO).

The ISO 9001 certification was awarded for operational compliance with processes and procedures expected from leading companies. The ISO 14001 certification was awarded for compliance with leading processes and procedures to protect the environment.

Con-Way’s ISO certifications apply to over 400 facilities and more than 17,000 employees throughout the United States and Canada. The seven operating companies now certified include four less-than-truckload carriers, and the operations of Con-Way Logistics, Con-Way AIR and Con-Way NOW.
