A Milestone in Engineering Sector Leadership
ARRAM Consultores is proud to announce that it has obtained certification under the new ISO 56001 Innovation Management standard. This corporate achievement marks a significant milestone, positioning our consultancy as one of the first engineering firms in the region to integrate and formalise this rigorous international standard. It is the first international requirements standard and, therefore, certifiable, for an innovation management system.
ISO 56001 is established as the global reference framework for systematising innovation. Its adoption underscores our commitment to methodological excellence and the implementation of processes that ensure value creation across all our areas of activity.
Strategic Implications of the Commitment to ISO 56001
The decision to adopt ISO 56001 is rooted in the pursuit of operational excellence and the strengthening of our innovation ecosystem:
- Leadership vision and foresight: We have chosen to move ahead of the transition deadline for the new standard. This early adoption is a clear statement of intent that reinforces our commitment to excellence in innovation management, implemented systematically, consistently, and aligned with the strategy of ARRAM’s various business units.
- Driver of strategic projects: Certification ensures that our R&D&I projects are managed within a rigorous and globally recognised quality framework, while also formalising the management of innovation portfolios to evaluate and prioritise initiatives strategically.
- Culture of continuous improvement: It demonstrates that innovation is not a sporadic action but the result of implementing structured and cross-cutting processes that drive all our business units. The emphasis is on creating a culture that fosters innovation through the commitment of senior management.
Certification as a Pillar of Positioning and Internal Efficiency
For a company like ARRAM Consultores, operating in highly demanding sectors such as energy and industry, this certification goes beyond mere compliance. It represents a strategy for positioning and internal efficiency, ensuring that innovation is developed as a strategic and systematic process that extends throughout the entire organisation.
Formalising this management system provides concrete operational benefits:
- Rigor in R&D&I: It ensures that the identification, management, and monetisation of R&D&I projects (whether internal or collaborative) are carried out within a global quality framework, which is essential for strengthening credibility with partners and funding bodies.
- Strategic Alignment: It requires strict alignment of innovation management with business objectives, ensuring that innovation has a direct impact on the competitiveness and sustainability of our services.
- Proactive Culture: It encourages the active participation of the team in value creation, optimising the use of knowledge, which is considered one of the consultancy’s most valuable assets.
ARRAM’s ongoing commitment to ISO 56001 stands as a testament to continuous investment in knowledge and improvement—fundamental elements in shaping the future of engineering.
We extend our congratulations to the entire ARRAM team for making this achievement possible.
