1Spatial has been ISO9001/TickIT assured continuously since February 1994. This is unique in the Geographical Information Systems market.

In February 2000, well in advance of the internationally agreed deadline for upgrade, 1Spatial's transition to the latest standard, ISO 9001:2000 was completed. This standard has its foundations firmly set in two principles of continuous improvement and a process approach to quality management. A far greater emphasis has been placed on Customer Satisfaction and Senior Management leadership. 1Spatial comfortably exchanged the old procedures for meaningful processes that are governed by procedures and influenced by guidelines.

The standard is maintained by locally generated internal audits and biannual external audits both of which help our business to remain customer focussed and achieve its objectives. 1Spatial welcomes its customers to undertake second party assessments of our processes as we strive for further improvement. Second party assessment is a significant part of our relationship with major companies like BAe. Our external assessment agency is LRQA.
