Sands china earns fourth iso certificate

Sands China has earned an ISO 9001:2015 certification for the quality of its management of its facilities department, Sands China announced last week.

The scope of the certification covers all of the gaming operators’ properties and is the fourth ISO certificate for The Venetian Macao. The gaming operator already holds ISO 20121:2012 certification for its event sustainability management system, ISO 9001:2008 certification for the quality management system of its convention and exhibition services, and ISO 22000:2005 accreditation for its food safety management system.

Michael Naylor, senior vice president of facilities for Venetian Macau Limited, said, “With the successful rollout of the ISO 9001:2015 standard, this provides the base to launch further facilities initiatives.”

Naylor’s resort facilities team, which has over 1,500 team members, is the first in Macau to meet the ISO 9001:2015 standard.

Implementing the ISO 9001:2015 standard helps ensure that customers receive consistent, high quality products and services.
