After talking to Tony, we immediately felt the fresh breeze in terms of knowledge he have and willingness to work with his clients. He was very helpful even before any contract was awarded. He helped us to get from point A to point B without any hassle. Achieving ISO 9001:2015 was the highest priority project for team ENIAC and Tony delivered that with ease and efficiency! Had we not had the expertise of QARMA Consulting to assist us, wouldn’t have gotten our certification in September 2021. Thank you for guidance and I’d definitely recommend this to other businesses who want to pursue the certification!"

He answered every email or phone call promptly with a solution to help us. The advice given to us had a great impact on our registrar audit. Tony properly prepared us, and we passed with zero major or minor findings. This has led to us getting larger contracts and increased profitability.

“I like to write a testimonial for Tony at QARMA Consulting, He had help us in the past creating our AS9100 Quality manual. After five years we decided to obtain ISO 13485 Certificate and we ask Tony for help. Guess what he works tremendously hard, to make us understand, train and adopt these new quality systems. Also same time he was very particular about all CFR’s and making sure we comply properly We really appreciate your hard work Tony."

“Being a small company without a lot of experience with ISO we were a little bit timid with moving forward with ISO certification on our own so we decided to work with a consultant and hired Tony Lepore of The Qarma Group. We felt his approach was clear and on point, his communication was excellent and it felt like he really personalized the process for our company. The implementation was very easy to follow and we are now ISO 9001 certified with our register audit just concluded and having zero findings. Ultimately I can’t say enough good things about Tony and The Qarma Group. Looking forward to working with Tony again when we add ISO 13485"

“Thank you for your efforts in assisting the TST, Inc team to achieve ISO accreditation. Achieving ISO 9001:2015 for TST, Inc helped us to make effective internal improvements and advance our quality management system. Your services ensured that our processes were relevant to the task. QARMA Consulting assistance and expert services throughout the project were extremely valuable. The approach used to our quality management was to make it valuable and relevant, as well as practical and workable. With QARMA Consulting expert guidance, we upgraded the entire quality system and achieved ISO9001:2015 accreditation March 2018 without any Major or Minor findings. This advice given to us throughout our transition process was excellent and it could have been a much more difficult or protracted process without your services. We are most thankful and would have no hesitation in recommending QARMA Consulting to others.”

We have now been through two upgrades (ISO 9000 & TL9000) and have passed both with flying colors with the support and help from Tony.

“It is with great satisfaction that I wholeheartedly recommend Tony Lepore of QARMA Consulting as a highly valuable resource in the area of assisting EMI Solutions, Inc. in successfully obtaining our AS9100 Rev D Certificate.
Over the course of several months, Tony consistently demonstrated his outstanding professionalism and subject matter expertise, enabling our company to raise our AS9100C Quality Management System processes and procedures to meet the new, stringent AS9100D requirements.
Tony is a highly effective communicator, with a clear understanding of the comprehensive details related to the Rev. D requirements. He was also extremely accommodating in regards to working on a flexible schedule, which afforded me the ability to work towards a successful audit result with minimal impact on my day to day Quality Assurance responsibilities, insuring that the company’s revenue stream would not be affected.
Delivering a personal approach to his clients, Tony is able to balance being personable while maintaining a strict adherence to the requirements. As a result of his strict Internal Auditing process, EMI Solutions achieved a PERFECT certifying audit with not a single finding or OFI, which is the clearly the ultimate goal of any audit.
In closing, I would strongly urge any company seeking a quality consultant to contact Tony to discuss your specific needs. I am very confident that you will be highly satisfied with the results”
– Justin Von Bargen (Quality Assurance Manager) – EMI Solutions, Inc.
“When Tony Lepore first came on board 3 years ago we were 4 months away from our ISO audit, our current ISO coordinator had quit and our process was in shambles. Tony lead us through the whole process. He took our current ISO procedures and simplified our process to a very comprehensive system that we use on a daily basis reducing errors and improving efficiency and in turn transformed the way we do business. Tony is very organized and takes a lot of pride in his work. He provided us with critical insight into our business which allowed us to make decisions that make us more competitive.
Tony continues to be an integral part of our team. He continues to come in every other month to oversee our processes and make sure we are in compliance and on track ready for our annual audits, so much so that we were able to transition to the 2015 revision a year early. Since Tony has been with us we have passed our ISO certification audits with ease.
I would highly recommend Tony Lepore to anyone that is looking to be ISO certified.”
