This is Part IV of our ongoing series where we look back at some recent editorial graphics that ran alongside Oxebridge posts. See Part I of this series\u00a0here<\/a>, Part II\u00a0here<\/a>\u00a0and Part III here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Those Bloody Bastards<\/strong><\/p>\n

This graphic, erm, graphic was cut from an article<\/a> on how some ISO 13485 certified companies were cited by the US FDA for manufacturing dangerous medical devices.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Instead, this graphic was used in its place:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s Zen, Baby<\/strong><\/p>\n

Oxebridge got all woke and used this illustration to describe<\/a> how companies facing the impossible ISO 9001 transition deadline should just yield to it, and to the work necessary to update their QMS in their own time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Kessel Run<\/strong><\/p>\n

When BSI started issuing unaccredited ISO 45001 certificates within minutes<\/a> of the new standard being published, only a Star Wars meme could possibly capture the fantastic madness of it all.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Spelling Lessons<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following on from that BSI debacle, the IAF was supposed to look into<\/a> how, exactly, BSI was issuing unaccredited certificates when doing so is a violation of the accreditation rules. They never bothered to follow up, of course.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Watch the Birdie<\/strong><\/p>\n

This mashup of the ANAB and EAGLE Certification Group logos was used to illustrate the coziness of the two organizations having their respective Presidents related as father and son.\"\"<\/p>\n

Every Time A Registrar Lies To A Client, An Angel Gets Its Wings<\/strong><\/p>\n

This graphic accompanied our report on how one Intertek auditor provided gushing praise to a client, leading them to publish a most extraordinary press release. The original response by the angel on the right was “Noob!” but we thought “Sigh” worked better.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Do As I Say, Not As I Say I Do<\/strong><\/p>\n

This pants-on-fire genius illustrated<\/a> the problem of yielding to so-called “expert” advice by registrar auditors who hide their consulting under the guise of “opportunities for improvement.”\"\"<\/p>\n

Free Just Got Expensive<\/strong><\/p>\n

When we found a consulting firm reselling our free ISO 9001 Template Kit documents for a whopping $17,000, we ran this as the thumbnail graphic. The article was removed when the firm ceased its copyright and trademark infringement in order to avoid a lawsuit by Oxebridge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Follow The Money<\/strong><\/p>\n

When we found out that 50% of the IAF’s annual income went to a single Canadian consultant, we ran<\/a> this graphic of their logo on some c-notes.<\/p>\n
