90 Degrees North QMSD Celebrates ISO Certification with Benchmarking Trip to Thailand

December 11, 2025

The Quality Management System Department (QMSD) at 90 Degrees North recently took a trip to Thailand from November 27 to December 1, which coincided with their celebration of achieving ISO 9001:2015 certification. This trip, while recognized as a reward for their hard work, also provided the team with a valuable opportunity to engage in activities beyond leisure.

QMSD Head Kristine Denna, Internal Quality Auditor Laarnie Sangalang, and Document Controller Angelee Obrador used this time to benchmark international best practices and to conduct strategic planning sessions to maintain high-quality standards across all departments. They were accompanied by Finance Head Ira Bolilan and 90 Degrees North President and CEO Achie Denna.

Achieving ISO certification exhibits 90 Degrees North’s commitment to adhering to the highest international quality management standards. This accomplishment highlights the understanding that quality is an ongoing journey rather than a final goal.

 

Congratulations to the entire QMSD team for their exceptional efforts and dedication!
