Sea Box International recently re-certified its ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems certification, taking the opportunity to transition to the newer ISO 9001:2015.
The newer standard focuses on the needs of all parties, ensures alignment with other management standards, continues an ongoing focus on improvement and has a consistent foundation for the future.
Sea Box International is a proud supporter of the Special Children’s Christmas Party 2017.
Special Children’s Christmas Party gives children with special needs the opportunity to attend with the purpose of putting smiles on their faces with a day they’ll never forget! Events are held around Australia from mid November to mid December each year and has great entertainment including amusement rides, animal farm, craft and a host of other activities. The children receive free lunch and snacks. There is also a four hour stage show and the highlight is when Santa arrives in his sleigh. Each child receives two high-quality toys plus a show bag full of goodies.
Sea Box International was pleased to host engineering student Joel Davy earlier this year through the Defence Engineering Internship Program (DEIP).
Joel’s internship was featured in the DEIP’s latest newsletter:
“During his internship Joel defined the complete production design documents for a prototype winch system and produced a ‘flat pack’ used by the Australian Army. In addition, he developed the design documents for a small ramp and conducted Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on another Sea Box prototype, writing and delivering the FEA report. Joel enjoyed working on projects with a ‘real world’ application.”
