ISO 10002:2014 Customer Satisfaction and Complaints Management System

In today's competitive and customer-driven environment, retaining existing customers is significantly more cost-effective than acquiring new ones. ISO 10002:2014 provides a structured framework for managing customer complaints, ensuring that organizations address dissatisfaction effectively and turn complaints into opportunities for improvement. At IYAS Accreditation, we enable organizations to implement ISO 10002 to enhance customer satisfaction, protect their brand reputation, and foster long-term loyalty.

What is ISO 10002?

ISO 10002:2014 outlines the processes for handling complaints related to an organization’s products, services, or operations. It provides a systematic approach for addressing customer dissatisfaction, offering clear guidelines to evaluate, respond to, and resolve complaints effectively. This standard not only helps organizations address grievances but also builds a foundation for continual improvement and operational efficiency.
