Project Description: Consulting, Auditing, and Web QMS for API Q1 and API 11B certification
“I feel that I am a bit overdue in sending this letter to you to relay my feelings of our experience to date with Mireaux Management Solutions. Since the beginning, Mireaux’s engagement with US Rod has been exemplary. Mireaux’s consulting support for the creation of an API Q1 QMS and API 11B program, and associated audit preparation was
performed in a time frame that we at first did not think possible, since our own internal resources had tried fruitlessly to do it themselves over a longer period of time prior to Mireaux’s engagement. Your consultants were extremely professional in all their engagements with US Rod, both onsite, and remotely during the pandemic travel restrictions. We appreciated how your team seamlessly integrated into our team, and how smoothly communication and idea flow occurred. Mireaux’s approach to using a different internal auditor team during our pre-API audit preparation was also a brilliant idea and we appreciated that you use this not only to put a different set of eyes on our QMS but also to overcheck your own consultants.
You will recall that we had a very successful API audit with only a few minor findings. Mireaux’s support in crafting strong responses to those findings was very helpful, and we believe helped to cause API’s acceptance of our responses on the first submittal. US Rod continues to use Mireaux’s Web QMS software platform, and we have been extremely grateful for the prompt and professional support from your software team whenever we have needed assistance or have made requests for customization to our software portal.
US Rod is very grateful to have found such a strong and trusted business partner to assist in our QMS activities. As we continue to grow in our industry segment, we will look to expand our existing system to incorporate EMS and possibly lab certifications. We will certainly come to Mireaux first when those needs materialize. Thank you again!”

Highly recommend! Working with Mireaux Management Systems has been a positive experience. Consultants were always on time, helpful, and available to answer questions and meet whenever needed. They did quite a lot of work for us to ensure we were ready for the certification audit. I would highly recommend them to organizations, especially smaller ones, seeking their initial certification.

DeWalch Technologies, Inc. is very pleased with the performance of Mireaux Management Solutions during our engagement preparing for and obtaining our ISO 9001:2015 certification. I have known Miriam Boudreaux since the mid-1990s and am not at all surprised that she has created such a talented organization. Miriam is a woman of great intellect, professionalism, and dedication and it clearly shows through her organization. We had the pleasure of working with Sindi David and Geno Duran during our effort and there is no way we could have done what we did in the time we did it without their guidance. We began our engagement in late September and passed our initial audit in mid-December. I do not recommend such an aggressive timeline to any organization that is not willing to completely evolve. With Sindi’s leadership, we reached our goal and our organization is the better for it. Therefore I cannot stress enough how highly I recommend Mireaux Management Solutions. I wish them continued success and would gladly engage them on our next journey.

“In December 2015, PV Fluid Products earned the ISO 9001:2008 certification and Mireaux Management Solutions was a key partner in this successful endeavor. Mireaux’s consulting scope was substantial, ranging from the overall design of a quality management system to the auditing of our processes that ultimately led to our ISO accreditation. We would recommend Mireaux to any company going through the implementation of a Quality Management System in order to obtain ISO certification. Working with Mireaux Management Solutions has been fantastic. They are tremendously positive and were dedicated to helping our company succeed. Without their knowledge and reinforcement, there is no doubt that it would have taken us much longer to achieve our goal and become certified. They treated us as part of the family and made sure to see us all of the way through the process. Madhavi even came to our external audit. Their support and commitment made them a pleasure to work with. In terms of consulting, we relied heavily on the expertise and knowledge from Mireaux. We held several meetings and discussions in order to fully learn and grasp the requirements of the ISO 9001:2008 standard and how they applied to our company. Mireaux carried out several departmental interviews and tried to fully understand the workings of our company, so that we would have a QMS that truly fit us. Mireaux also created our Web QMS. This web-based tool has made it easy for us to maintain and control our QMS in a way that falls in line with the ISO Standards. Mireaux has worked with us on training and customization, so that the software will be company-specific and beneficial. This endeavor greatly enhances our opportunities for future growth in our industry. Even our customers are noticing the impact our QMS has made. We are extremely appreciative of Mireaux and its staff.

“I wish I could speak directly with any potential client seeking assistance with ISO Quality Management System certification. Since that is not possible, this letter will have to do.
I recommend Mireaux Management Solutions to any company seeking certification – I guarantee you will not find a better company to shepherd you through the process.
Mireaux brought many superior elements to bear on our project: project management tools, expertise and a couple of secret elements that made a huge difference.
From the kickoff meeting to the final audit, Mireaux kept us on track with plans, schedules, weekly status meetings, action items, everything a good Project Management system should have, plus relentless prodding – you can run but you can’t hide from Mireaux!
Mireaux provides with its service a software product, a web-based QMS, which supplies all the elements of an effective QMS. A major cost of a quality management system is managing it. Web QMS manages the data and essential processes, freeing your staff to be much more productive; and audits are dramatically simplified with Web QMS.
We also drew heavily on Mireaux’s expertise in interpreting the requirements of ISO 9001:2008. Every company is different, so there is no ‘one size fits all’ solution. Mireaux thoroughly studied our operation and expertly wove the ISO requirements into the fabric of our process, with minimal disruption.
But what really made the difference were the secret elements, now revealed: Spirit and Dedication. We did not have the luxury of designing and implementing a QMS during a lull; we all had full-time jobs running our business, so we had to shoehorn this work into very congested schedules. What made this possible was the dedication of Mireaux’s people to not let us fail. Our principal consultant and all the individuals who worked on our project infected us with with extra energy. Their underlying spirit and dedication to our cause, including their many long days and even unsolicited weekend work, enabled us to stay on schedule and ultimately be successful.
Feel free to contact me if you want additional information regarding our experience with Mireaux Management Solutions.”

“Having just completed our audit with NO nonconformities found, we would like to take a moment to thank you and your team for the help provided in our ISO 9001 certification process!
The knowledge and services Mireaux provided were invaluable. This includes:
E-Learning modules, these allowed us to get all of our people familiar with ISO in an easy and efficient manner.
Document control, this is the single most visible improvement. Without this, ISO would not have been possible.
The CIP process made it easy for us to manage our continual improvement projects and to share them with the auditors.
Mireaux’s Technical Writer/Document Control personnel managed all the details of procedure creation, updates, and revisions. If we had to do this work in-house, the quality would not have been as good and we would still not be finished. Amy’s attention to detail and responsiveness saved the day on more than one occasion.
Thanks to Web QMS, there was high visibility on the ISO project from day one. This helped everyone feel something was being built and they were a part of it.
The internal audit brought every detail to the surface so that we were more than ready when the external audit came around.
With your help, we were able to keep things moving according to our original plan and finished on time in just 9 months. Although you kept us organized and on track, you recognized our ownership of the project. I feel like TransPac and Mireaux worked really well together as a team.

“I wanted to thank you for our new QMS system! The migration phase was a breeze and very quick. Since the system has been in place, I’ve received excellent support from you and your staff. Each time questions or concerns have risen, your staff has responded promptly and has respectfully worked with me to solve the problem.
It is so much better having an online based system as opposed to our old manual paper pushing system. Since switching to the online system, we have seen employee involvement in the program greatly increase. Employees are taking to the website to raise CIPs much more often than before.
Additionally, we have been able to involve more employees in the problem solving process addressing CIPs. Having an online based system has also greatly improved my ability to track and organize CIPs. I love that I can see the status of each CIP and know exactly where it is in the process by looking at one screen.
Furthermore, I have found the system to be much more user friendly than the last system. Updating, editing, and removing information is very simple and fast!
One of my favorite improvements is the calibration tracking system. What a dream! It is so easy to update, add, remove and track information regarding our equipment. Prior to tracking calibration on the web, we used a manual spreadsheet system. As you know, without single point management, spreadsheets can be a nightmare.
One of the greatest things about the new tracking system, is getting reminder emails of what is coming up for calibration. It makes for one less thing I have to remember manually check on a spreadsheet.
I’m truly gratefully for this part of the system! It was a pleasure working with you to get the system up and running, and I look forward to working with you in the future as well. I will definitely recommend your company to others!”

Project Description: Revamping of existing Quality Management System and assistance with re-certification process (2006).
I am pleased to be able to recommend and serve as a reference for Miriam Boudreaux as an expert Quality Management System (QMS) consultant.
Ms. Boudreaux was retained by Hart InterCivic in early 2006 to perform an independent internal audit of the Colorado Division’s QMS as part of its normal systems monitoring for ISO 9001:2000 certification. The audit conducted and the subsequent report produced by Ms. Boudreaux revealed a number of systemic deficiencies that were not previously identified during the regular surveillance audit by the certification body just a couple months earlier. Upon further investigation of the findings by Ms. Boudreaux, management determined a significant revamping of the QMS was required.
Ms. Boudreaux was instrumental in helping to update the Hart Colorado QMS, including management consulting, drafting procedures, providing training and performing additional audits as necessary to verify and validate the corrective actions taken were appropriate and effective. Within a few months, Hart had adopted a completely restructured and revised QMS that was inherently simpler and better understood by the users of the system, thus attaining a significantly greater level of acceptance and compliance. Ms. Boudreaux’s consultative approach working within existing processes ensured the new QMS was immediately recognized and embraced by the company.

I have had the pleasure and good fortune of working with Miriam Boudreaux on our Web-based QMS over the past 3 years.
Our association began with creation of our web based QMS in support of successful ISO9001:2000 certification in 2005. It continued when my division was spun off from our original parent company and she assisted us in the transfer of the QMS to our new company, Mission Technology Group, Inc dba MAGMA, culminating in the transfer of our ISO certification and a successful completion of the periodic audit the following year.
Miriam has continued to provide support well after the initial QMS implementation and was integral in the transition of our web based QMS and ISO certification.

Project Description: Integration of the Quality Systems, from ten manufacturing sites across the United States and Mexico, into a single online Corporate Quality Management Systems, that also addresses the requirements from 4 different standards (ISO 9001:2000, ISO14001, TS16949 and TL9000) and the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) (2002).
The work performed by Mireaux Inc. far exceeded my expectations. The capabilities that were developed across Suntron Corporation by Mireaux Inc. will allow us to better manage our systems on-line with no documentation. This gives us an added advantage for winning new business since this is a competitive edge that our competitors do not have in place today.
The project was lead by Miriam Boudreaux who has a very diverse background in both Quality Systems and Manufacturing Operations. Mrs. Boudreaux works in a very professional manner and is capable of operating in both a highly strategic or very tactical hands-on role. I would highly recommend Mrs. Boudreaux and her services to any company looking to move to a paperless system and implement a highly efficient cost savings infrastructure.

I am writing to recommend the service of Mireaux Management Solutions represented by Miriam Boudreaux. Mireaux had been working with Lonestar Energy Fabrication for the past 10 years helping us prepare for our API Q1 compliance each year. Their knowledge and attention to detail have aided in keeping our company on track during our years of service. They have also provided excellent training services for our quality and management personal.
I feel confident in recommending Mireaux Management Solutions services for any API auditing services you may need.
They are not only thorough but also easy to work with and always willing to take the time to discuss my concerns and respond to questions.

“I feel that I am a bit overdue in sending this letter to you to relay my feelings of our experience to date with Mireaux Management Solutions. Since the beginning, Mireaux’s engagement with US Rod has been exemplary. Mireaux’s consulting support for the creation of an API Q1 QMS and API 11B program, and associated audit preparation was
performed in a time frame that we at first did not think possible, since our own internal resources had tried fruitlessly to do it themselves over a longer period of time prior to Mireaux’s engagement. Your consultants were extremely professional in all their engagements with US Rod, both onsite, and remotely during the pandemic travel restrictions. We appreciated how your team seamlessly integrated into our team, and how smoothly communication and idea flow occurred. Mireaux’s approach to using a different internal auditor team during our pre-API audit preparation was also a brilliant idea and we appreciated that you use this not only to put a different set of eyes on our QMS but also to overcheck your own consultants.
You will recall that we had a very successful API audit with only a few minor findings. Mireaux’s support in crafting strong responses to those findings was very helpful, and we believe helped to cause API’s acceptance of our responses on the first submittal. US Rod continues to use Mireaux’s Web QMS software platform, and we have been extremely grateful for the prompt and professional support from your software team whenever we have needed assistance or have made requests for customization to our software portal.
US Rod is very grateful to have found such a strong and trusted business partner to assist in our QMS activities. As we continue to grow in our industry segment, we will look to expand our existing system to incorporate EMS and possibly lab certifications. We will certainly come to Mireaux first when those needs materialize. Thank you again!”

I have known Miriam Boudreaux since the mid-1990s and am not at all surprised that she has created such a talented organization. Miriam is a woman of great intellect, professionalism, and dedication and it clearly shows through her organization. We had the pleasure of working with Sindi David and Geno Duran during our effort and there is no way we could have done what we did in the time we did it without their guidance. We began our engagement in late September and passed our initial audit in mid-December. I do not recommend such an aggressive timeline to any organization that is not willing to completely evolve. With Sindi’s leadership, we reached our goal and our organization is the better for it. Therefore I cannot stress enough how highly I recommend Mireaux Management Solutions. I wish them continued success and would gladly engage them on our next journey.

“As part of our organizations continual employee training opportunities a number of our team recently attended a three day Internal Auditing class to the ISO: 9001:2008 standard. Prior to choosing Mireaux Management Solutions we internally performed the normal due diligence of comparing Mireaux with three other companies comparing cost, availability, training agenda, and so on. It soon became obvious that Mireaux met all of our requirements especially after speaking to Miriam Boudreaux in person.
“What a great experience with Mireaux! Real people, real results, no BS. Unlike other meretricious consulting firms, Mireaux delivers. Starting from the first telephone call to the boss herself, Miriam, back on 8/6/2015, up until now, with a last minute request to perform an Internal Audit, Mireaux’s staff responds in a very timely manner and my auditor Paul was off the charts! You know that sinking feeling you get when you go to Home Depot and get “help” from someone who doesn’t know a screwdriver from a sheet of plywood AND THEN you actually find “the guy”, who knows, because he’s been there/done that and answers all your questions? Enter Paul. He used so many real world examples based off industry experience to help clarify issues which was very helpful. His temperament was amazing, he could tell us we were all screwed up and we would still like him! :). We unequivocally recommend Mireaux for your QMS needs.”

“In December 2015, PV Fluid Products earned the ISO 9001:2008 certification and Mireaux Management Solutions was a key partner in this successful endeavor. Mireaux’s consulting scope was substantial, ranging from the overall design of a quality management system to the auditing of our processes that ultimately led to our ISO accreditation. We would recommend Mireaux to any company going through the implementation of a Quality Management System in order to obtain ISO certification. Working with Mireaux Management Solutions has been fantastic. They are tremendously positive and were dedicated to helping our company succeed. Without their knowledge and reinforcement, there is no doubt that it would have taken us much longer to achieve our goal and become certified. They treated us as part of the family and made sure to see us all of the way through the process. Madhavi even came to our external audit. Their support and commitment made them a pleasure to work with. In terms of consulting, we relied heavily on the expertise and knowledge from Mireaux. We held several meetings and discussions in order to fully learn and grasp the requirements of the ISO 9001:2008 standard and how they applied to our company. Mireaux carried out several departmental interviews and tried to fully understand the workings of our company, so that we would have a QMS that truly fit us. Mireaux also created our Web QMS. This web-based tool has made it easy for us to maintain and control our QMS in a way that falls in line with the ISO Standards. Mireaux has worked with us on training and customization, so that the software will be company-specific and beneficial. This endeavor greatly enhances our opportunities for future growth in our industry. Even our customers are noticing the impact our QMS has made.

“I wish I could speak directly with any potential client seeking assistance with ISO Quality Management System certification. Since that is not possible, this letter will have to do.
I recommend Mireaux Management Solutions to any company seeking certification – I guarantee you will not find a better company to shepherd you through the process.
Mireaux brought many superior elements to bear on our project: project management tools, expertise and a couple of secret elements that made a huge difference.
From the kickoff meeting to the final audit, Mireaux kept us on track with plans, schedules, weekly status meetings, action items, everything a good Project Management system should have, plus relentless prodding – you can run but you can’t hide from Mireaux!
Mireaux provides with its service a software product, a web-based QMS, which supplies all the elements of an effective QMS. A major cost of a quality management system is managing it. Web QMS manages the data and essential processes, freeing your staff to be much more productive; and audits are dramatically simplified with Web QMS.
We also drew heavily on Mireaux’s expertise in interpreting the requirements of ISO 9001:2008. Every company is different, so there is no ‘one size fits all’ solution. Mireaux thoroughly studied our operation and expertly wove the ISO requirements into the fabric of our process, with minimal disruption.
But what really made the difference were the secret elements, now revealed: Spirit and Dedication. We did not have the luxury of designing and implementing a QMS during a lull; we all had full-time jobs running our business, so we had to shoehorn this work into very congested schedules. What made this possible was the dedication of Mireaux’s people to not let us fail. Our principal consultant and all the individuals who worked on our project infected us with with extra energy. Their underlying spirit and dedication to our cause, including their many long days and even unsolicited weekend work, enabled us to stay on schedule and ultimately be successful.

“Having just completed our audit with NO nonconformities found, we would like to take a moment to thank you and your team for the help provided in our ISO 9001 certification process!
The knowledge and services Mireaux provided were invaluable. This includes:
E-Learning modules, these allowed us to get all of our people familiar with ISO in an easy and efficient manner.
Document control, this is the single most visible improvement. Without this, ISO would not have been possible.
The CIP process made it easy for us to manage our continual improvement projects and to share them with the auditors.
Mireaux’s Technical Writer/Document Control personnel managed all the details of procedure creation, updates, and revisions. If we had to do this work in-house, the quality would not have been as good and we would still not be finished. Amy’s attention to detail and responsiveness saved the day on more than one occasion.
Thanks to Web QMS, there was high visibility on the ISO project from day one. This helped everyone feel something was being built and they were a part of it.
The internal audit brought every detail to the surface so that we were more than ready when the external audit came around.
With your help, we were able to keep things moving according to our original plan and finished on time in just 9 months. Although you kept us organized and on track, you recognized our ownership of the project. I feel like TransPac and Mireaux worked really well together as a team.

“I wanted to thank you for our new QMS system! The migration phase was a breeze and very quick. Since the system has been in place, I’ve received excellent support from you and your staff. Each time questions or concerns have risen, your staff has responded promptly and has respectfully worked with me to solve the problem.
It is so much better having an online based system as opposed to our old manual paper pushing system. Since switching to the online system, we have seen employee involvement in the program greatly increase. Employees are taking to the website to raise CIPs much more often than before.
Additionally, we have been able to involve more employees in the problem solving process addressing CIPs. Having an online based system has also greatly improved my ability to track and organize CIPs. I love that I can see the status of each CIP and know exactly where it is in the process by looking at one screen.
Furthermore, I have found the system to be much more user friendly than the last system. Updating, editing, and removing information is very simple and fast!
One of my favorite improvements is the calibration tracking system. What a dream! It is so easy to update, add, remove and track information regarding our equipment. Prior to tracking calibration on the web, we used a manual spreadsheet system. As you know, without single point management, spreadsheets can be a nightmare.
One of the greatest things about the new tracking system, is getting reminder emails of what is coming up for calibration. It makes for one less thing I have to remember manually check on a spreadsheet.
I’m truly gratefully for this part of the system! It was a pleasure working with you to get the system up and running, and I look forward to working with you in the future as well. I will definitely recommend your company to others!”

Most importantly, the Web QMS system that they implemented for us has been outstanding in helping streamline our Calibration process. As a machining company we have over 500 instruments to calibrate. The Web QMS’ Calibration module has been very effective, eliminating paperwork and tedious upkeep tasks.
I would highly recommend Mireaux’s services and the Web QMS to anybody looking to improve and become ISO certified.”

Mireaux Management Solutions helped us achieve
ISO 27001:2005 certification in a short time. We had set an extremely aggressive timeline; Mireaux’s hands on approach and dedicated support staff helped us reach each critical milestone and attain our goal in the allotted time.
Miriam learned our process and used existing procedures and resources where available in order to help us meet the requirements of ISO 27001 standard. Her systematic approach and ongoing Action Items Report allowed management at PDMC to focus on the items that were on the critical path to certification. Miriam Boudreaux and her team’s willingness to adapt to our rapid changing environment and schedules and guide us as necessary was invaluable to our success.
Our Initial Audit resulted in zero non-conformities and therefore we were recommended for ISO 27001 Certification on the spot.
We are extremely satisfied with Mireaux Management Solutions and are planning to work with Miriam and her team to implement the Web QMS as our combined ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 27001 Management System.

I called Mireaux Management Solutions in late October 2009. I explained that we were in a rush to obtain ISO certification due to the Chinese government requirements.
On October 23, 2009 we had our first meeting and sensing the urgency on our part, Ms. Boudreaux had a contract prepared and therefore we signed the contract on the spot. I am please to say that as of March 31, 2010 we are an ISO 9001 certified company thanks to DNV and Mireaux Management Solutions.
Ms. Boudreaux and her team worked diligently to meet our strict deadlines. They basically created an infrastructure that we never had, going beyond the requirements of ISO to ensure that all of our Human Resources and Operating practices were formalized. We have already benefited from the many procedures, forms and policies they implemented, saving our company money. As a small company, there were many processes we were just doing ad hoc or had never charted. They brought their experience with larger companies, and implemented improvements that truly added value to us. Most of all, they complied with our deadlines, despite the holidays and the end of the year.
The Web QMS used to deploy our Quality Management System also helped us get organized and made the audit very simple, as we were able to show everything the auditor wanted. We are really looking forward to continually working with Ms. Boudreaux and Mireaux Management Solutions in conducting our Internal Audits.

It is with great pleasure that I unreservedly recommend the services of Ms. Miriam Boudreaux and Mireaux, Inc. as consultants for implementation of company quality programs. Ms. Boudreaux provided excellent and timely services as our company, Labwire, Inc., sought to implement a comprehensive quality program. Ms. Boudreaux provided a customized Intranet program that has become an integral part of our company’s daily operation.
As a result of implementing this highly effective quality program, our company was able to achieve the requirements set forth by ISO 9001:2000. In fact, we were able to achieve this certification in less than two months from our initial meeting with Ms. Boudreaux, making Labwire, Inc. the only company within our industry to obtain this certification.
For knowledge, product development, and cost effective implementation, I highly recommend the services of Ms. Boudreaux and Mireaux, Inc.

We have been so pleased with the work product of Mireaux Inc. and specifically the guidance and demeanor of Miriam Boudreaux in our efforts to achieve ISO 9000 certification.

By using Miriam’s all-inclusive, turnkey program we were able to achieve our goals ahead of schedule and under budget.

Project Description: Revamping of existing Quality Management System and assistance with re-certification process (2006).
I am pleased to be able to recommend and serve as a reference for Miriam Boudreaux as an expert Quality Management System (QMS) consultant.
Ms. Boudreaux was retained by Hart InterCivic in early 2006 to perform an independent internal audit of the Colorado Division’s QMS as part of its normal systems monitoring for ISO 9001:2000 certification. The audit conducted and the subsequent report produced by Ms. Boudreaux revealed a number of systemic deficiencies that were not previously identified during the regular surveillance audit by the certification body just a couple months earlier. Upon further investigation of the findings by Ms. Boudreaux, management determined a significant revamping of the QMS was required.
Ms. Boudreaux was instrumental in helping to update the Hart Colorado QMS, including management consulting, drafting procedures, providing training and performing additional audits as necessary to verify and validate the corrective actions taken were appropriate and effective. Within a few months, Hart had adopted a completely restructured and revised QMS that was inherently simpler and better understood by the users of the system, thus attaining a significantly greater level of acceptance and compliance. Ms. Boudreaux’s consultative approach working within existing processes ensured the new QMS was immediately recognized and embraced by the company.
In December 2006, Hart’s Colorado facility not only successfully passed its triennial ISO 9001:2000 recertification audit with a new accredited certification body, but was also able to expand the scope of its QMS certification.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

I have had the pleasure and good fortune of working with Miriam Boudreaux on our Web-based QMS over the past 3 years.
Our association began with creation of our web based QMS in support of successful ISO9001:2000 certification in 2005. It continued when my division was spun off from our original parent company and she assisted us in the transfer of the QMS to our new company, Mission Technology Group, Inc dba MAGMA, culminating in the transfer of our ISO certification and a successful completion of the periodic audit the following year.
Miriam has continued to provide support well after the initial QMS implementation and was integral in the transition of our web based QMS and ISO certification.

The work performed by Mireaux Inc. far exceeded my expectations. The capabilities that were developed across Suntron Corporation by Mireaux Inc. will allow us to better manage our systems on-line with no documentation. This gives us an added advantage for winning new business since this is a competitive edge that our competitors do not have in place today.
The project was lead by Miriam Boudreaux who has a very diverse background in both Quality Systems and Manufacturing Operations. Mrs. Boudreaux works in a very professional manner and is capable of operating in both a highly strategic or very tactical hands-on role.

“I feel that I am a bit overdue in sending this letter to you to relay my feelings of our experience to date with Mireaux Management Solutions. Since the beginning, Mireaux’s engagement with US Rod has been exemplary. Mireaux’s consulting support for the creation of an API Q1 QMS and API 11B program, and associated audit preparation was
performed in a time frame that we at first did not think possible, since our own internal resources had tried fruitlessly to do it themselves over a longer period of time prior to Mireaux’s engagement. Your consultants were extremely professional in all their engagements with US Rod, both onsite, and remotely during the pandemic travel restrictions. We appreciated how your team seamlessly integrated into our team, and how smoothly communication and idea flow occurred. Mireaux’s approach to using a different internal auditor team during our pre-API audit preparation was also a brilliant idea and we appreciated that you use this not only to put a different set of eyes on our QMS but also to overcheck your own consultants.
You will recall that we had a very successful API audit with only a few minor findings. Mireaux’s support in crafting strong responses to those findings was very helpful, and we believe helped to cause API’s acceptance of our responses on the first submittal. US Rod continues to use Mireaux’s Web QMS software platform, and we have been extremely grateful for the prompt and professional support from your software team whenever we have needed assistance or have made requests for customization to our software portal.
US Rod is very grateful to have found such a strong and trusted business partner to assist in our QMS activities. As we continue to grow in our industry segment, we will look to expand our existing system to incorporate EMS and possibly lab certifications. We will certainly come to Mireaux first when those needs materialize. Thank you again!”

We held several meetings and discussions in order to fully learn and grasp the requirements of the ISO 9001:2008 standard and how they applied to our company. Mireaux carried out several departmental interviews and tried to fully understand the workings of our company, so that we would have a QMS that truly fit us. Mireaux also created our Web QMS. This web-based tool has made it easy for us to maintain and control our QMS in a way that falls in line with the ISO Standards. Mireaux has worked with us on training and customization, so that the software will be company-specific and beneficial. This endeavor greatly enhances our opportunities for future growth in our industry. Even our customers are noticing the impact our QMS has made.

“I wish I could speak directly with any potential client seeking assistance with ISO Quality Management System certification. Since that is not possible, this letter will have to do.
I recommend Mireaux Management Solutions to any company seeking certification – I guarantee you will not find a better company to shepherd you through the process.
Mireaux brought many superior elements to bear on our project: project management tools, expertise and a couple of secret elements that made a huge difference.
From the kickoff meeting to the final audit, Mireaux kept us on track with plans, schedules, weekly status meetings, action items, everything a good Project Management system should have, plus relentless prodding – you can run but you can’t hide from Mireaux!
Mireaux provides with its service a software product, a web-based QMS, which supplies all the elements of an effective QMS. A major cost of a quality management system is managing it. Web QMS manages the data and essential processes, freeing your staff to be much more productive; and audits are dramatically simplified with Web QMS.
We also drew heavily on Mireaux’s expertise in interpreting the requirements of ISO 9001:2008. Every company is different, so there is no ‘one size fits all’ solution. Mireaux thoroughly studied our operation and expertly wove the ISO requirements into the fabric of our process, with minimal disruption.
But what really made the difference were the secret elements, now revealed: Spirit and Dedication. We did not have the luxury of designing and implementing a QMS during a lull; we all had full-time jobs running our business, so we had to shoehorn this work into very congested schedules. What made this possible was the dedication of Mireaux’s people to not let us fail. Our principal consultant and all the individuals who worked on our project infected us with with extra energy. Their underlying spirit and dedication to our cause, including their many long days and even unsolicited weekend work, enabled us to stay on schedule and ultimately be successful.
Feel free to contact me if you want additional information regarding our experience with Mireaux Management Solutions.”

“Supreme Integrated Technology, Inc. (SIT) wishes to formally thank you for the dedication, inspiration, and support provided in our successful certification by DNV to the referenced standard. Within an eight month period, you and your team advanced the program toward certification that would have taken our company at least two years to achieve.
The professionalism, knowledge, and experience shown by your staff were second to none and we hope to work with you in many future endeavors.
Since we have recently purchased another company, your involvement in getting that company certified is guaranteed. Additionally, we fully support our Parent Organization’s decision to use your staff and interactive internet software, “Web QMS” to achieve similar communicative and collective capabilities across our sister companies.
Thank you very much for all you have done in our behalf!”

“Having just completed our audit with NO nonconformities found, we would like to take a moment to thank you and your team for the help provided in our ISO 9001 certification process!
The knowledge and services Mireaux provided were invaluable. This includes:
E-Learning modules, these allowed us to get all of our people familiar with ISO in an easy and efficient manner.
Document control, this is the single most visible improvement. Without this, ISO would not have been possible.
The CIP process made it easy for us to manage our continual improvement projects and to share them with the auditors.
Mireaux’s Technical Writer/Document Control personnel managed all the details of procedure creation, updates, and revisions. If we had to do this work in-house, the quality would not have been as good and we would still not be finished. Amy’s attention to detail and responsiveness saved the day on more than one occasion.
Thanks to Web QMS, there was high visibility on the ISO project from day one. This helped everyone feel something was being built and they were a part of it.
The internal audit brought every detail to the surface so that we were more than ready when the external audit came around.
With your help, we were able to keep things moving according to our original plan and finished on time in just 9 months. Although you kept us organized and on track, you recognized our ownership of the project. I feel like TransPac and Mireaux worked really well together as a team. I learned a lot and really enjoyed working with you. Your expert advice was incredibly invaluable. We would definitely recommend you to any organization seeking ISO certification.”

Project Description: Migration of existing web based quality management system to our newest Web QMS platform, including the following applications CIP, NCR, Calibration, Employee Certifications and E-Learning (2011).
“I wanted to thank you for our new QMS system! The migration phase was a breeze and very quick. Since the system has been in place, I’ve received excellent support from you and your staff. Each time questions or concerns have risen, your staff has responded promptly and has respectfully worked with me to solve the problem.
It is so much better having an online based system as opposed to our old manual paper pushing system. Since switching to the online system, we have seen employee involvement in the program greatly increase. Employees are taking to the website to raise CIPs much more often than before.
Additionally, we have been able to involve more employees in the problem solving process addressing CIPs. Having an online based system has also greatly improved my ability to track and organize CIPs. I love that I can see the status of each CIP and know exactly where it is in the process by looking at one screen.
Furthermore, I have found the system to be much more user friendly than the last system. Updating, editing, and removing information is very simple and fast!
One of my favorite improvements is the calibration tracking system. What a dream! It is so easy to update, add, remove and track information regarding our equipment. Prior to tracking calibration on the web, we used a manual spreadsheet system. As you know, without single point management, spreadsheets can be a nightmare.
One of the greatest things about the new tracking system, is getting reminder emails of what is coming up for calibration. It makes for one less thing I have to remember manually check on a spreadsheet.
I’m truly gratefully for this part of the system! It was a pleasure working with you to get the system up and running, and I look forward to working with you in the future as well. I will definitely recommend your company to others!”

“Alloy Metals and Tubes International utilized the leadership of Mireaux Management Solutions to guide us through the process of ISO certification. Miriam Boudreaux knew the best route for us to take and helped us move along that path. Miriam efficiently organized our effort and effectively managed our work process to see that we achieved our goal.
Using the online Quality Management System provided by Mireaux Management Solutions [Web QMS], we already see the benefits of the ISO processes, particularly with the CIP program for continuous improvement.
I am well pleased with the result, having been through our audits and been recommended for certification on time and on budget. Miriam was a great communicator and motivator, and I recommend Mireaux Management Solutions to anyone who is serious about ISO certification.”

“We are really satisfied with the work that Miriam Boudreaux and Mireaux Management Solutions provided to us in helping obtain ISO 9001 certification. They simply understood our processes and did not try to change our way, but rather brought out the best in us in ensuring that we complied with the ISO standard.
Most importantly, the Web QMS system that they implemented for us has been outstanding in helping streamline our Calibration process. As a machining company we have over 500 instruments to calibrate. The Web QMS’ Calibration module has been very effective, eliminating paperwork and tedious upkeep tasks.
I would highly recommend Mireaux’s services and the Web QMS to anybody looking to improve and become ISO certified.”

Project Description: Turnkey assistance with ISO 9001 certification and implementation of the Web Quality Management. (2010).
I called Mireaux Management Solutions in late October 2009. I explained that we were in a rush to obtain ISO certification due to the Chinese government requirements.
On October 23, 2009 we had our first meeting and sensing the urgency on our part, Ms. Boudreaux had a contract prepared and therefore we signed the contract on the spot. I am please to say that as of March 31, 2010 we are an ISO 9001 certified company thanks to DNV and Mireaux Management Solutions.
Ms. Boudreaux and her team worked diligently to meet our strict deadlines. They basically created an infrastructure that we never had, going beyond the requirements of ISO to ensure that all of our Human Resources and Operating practices were formalized. We have already benefited from the many procedures, forms and policies they implemented, saving our company money. As a small company, there were many processes we were just doing ad hoc or had never charted. They brought their experience with larger companies, and implemented improvements that truly added value to us. Most of all, they complied with our deadlines, despite the holidays and the end of the year.
The Web QMS used to deploy our Quality Management System also helped us get organized and made the audit very simple, as we were able to show everything the auditor wanted. We are really looking forward to continually working with Ms. Boudreaux and Mireaux Management Solutions in conducting our Internal Audits.

We were very pleased with their work and truly believe that the Quality Management System they helped us put in place has definitely made our company more organized with clear processes and procedures as well as clear goals and objectives.
They were able to combine the ISO 9001 requirements and the C-TPAT requirements into one quality management system thus making it easier for all of us to follow. We are also using the Web QMS to keep all information regarding ISO and C-TPAT including procedures, forms, job descriptions and corrective and preventive actions.

It is with great pleasure that I unreservedly recommend the services of Ms. Miriam Boudreaux and Mireaux, Inc. as consultants for implementation of company quality programs. Ms. Boudreaux provided excellent and timely services as our company, Labwire, Inc., sought to implement a comprehensive quality program. Ms. Boudreaux provided a customized Intranet program that has become an integral part of our company’s daily operation.
As a result of implementing this highly effective quality program, our company was able to achieve the requirements set forth by ISO 9001:2000. In fact, we were able to achieve this certification in less than two months from our initial meeting with Ms. Boudreaux, making Labwire, Inc. the only company within our industry to obtain this certification.
For knowledge, product development, and cost effective implementation, I highly recommend the services of Ms. Boudreaux and Mireaux, Inc.

We are very satisfied with the work Miriam Boudreaux from Mireaux Management Solutions did for us.
In less than 3 months she helped us get our system ready for ISO 9001 and we now have our certificate in our hands.
She came highly recommended to us, and she definitely lived up to our expectations and much much more. Our new quality management system has already helped our business become more process driven and disciplined; and the web based quality management system that she implemented for us is definitely a great tool. Everything the auditor asked for during the Certification audit was one click away.
I would most certainly recommend Miriam Boudreaux and Mireaux Management Solutions to anybody looking to implement ISO 9001 or to streamline their processes.

I have had the pleasure and good fortune of working with Miriam Boudreaux on our Web-based QMS over the past 3 years.
Our association began with creation of our web based QMS in support of successful ISO9001:2000 certification in 2005. It continued when my division was spun off from our original parent company and she assisted us in the transfer of the QMS to our new company, Mission Technology Group, Inc dba MAGMA, culminating in the transfer of our ISO certification and a successful completion of the periodic audit the following year.
Miriam has continued to provide support well after the initial QMS implementation and was integral in the transition of our web based QMS and ISO certification.
