ISO 9001 certification
1994
In 1994, Cisco was awarded full ISO 9001 certification, the first major supplier of multiprotocol internetworking ever to do so. This certification assured our global customer base adherence to the most stringent and comprehensive quality management and assurance. Cisco President and CEO John Morgridge said, "Cisco products are found at the heart of the largest and most sophisticated networks in the world-networks that serve as the backbone for mission-critical applications as well as what is now being referred to as the data superhighway...ISO 9001 certification emphasizes that our total solution is based on quality."
