Scottish Grass Machinery is widely recognised as Scotland's premier
groundcare machinery supplier. Its key markets are local authority
ground maintenance department and golf clubs north of the border.
Following a management buy-out in 1991, the company has more than
tripled its annual turnover from £3 million to £10 million.
To accommodate this impressive expansion, it relocated to Inverkeithing,
near Dunfermline, in 1997 and now employs 56 staff.
Although Scottish Grass' business philosophy has always placed
quality at the top of its priorities, in the last few years the
feedback from existing and potential customers has indicated that
they preferred to deal with companies which possessed a recognised
quality standard.
Managing Director David McInroy commented: "We decided to
acquire ISO 9000 to assist with internal management controls and
because many potential customers, particularly local authorities,
were beginning to ask for it as a prerequisite when tendering for
contracts."
"We were very pleased with the high standard of work from
IMSM, whose flexible approach and experienced assessor made the
whole project much easier than we had expected."
