This is Part V of our ongoing series where we look back at some recent editorial graphics that ran alongside Oxebridge posts. See Part I of this series here<\/a>, Part II\u00a0here,<\/a>\u00a0Part III here<\/a> and Part IV here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Website Launch That Wasn’t<\/strong><\/p>\n

When IAF launched its CertSearch database site, things went very wrong<\/a>, because you couldn’t actually search any certs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

National Quality Assholes<\/strong><\/p>\n

This graphic accompanied our report<\/a> on how a high-ranking manager at the registrar NQA threatened a client for daring to hire Oxebridge to help close their audit nonconformities.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Banned for Life<\/strong><\/p>\n

When SAPA was banned<\/a> from supplying aerospace materials after if falsified material data, BSI continued to certify them to AS9100 anyway, and Quality Magazine kept giving them awards<\/a>.\u00a0
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Scream and Scream Again<\/strong><\/p>\n

This obscure graphic<\/a> went over a lot of people’s heads; it’s the European Accreditation (EA) logo used in a more effective manner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I Thought You Said “Upskirt”<\/strong><\/p>\n

IAF’s CertSearch beta site was bungled<\/a> from the start.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Rhymes with Ahab<\/strong><\/p>\n

As usual, ANAB released a really, really dumb ruling<\/a> that stands to allow large companies to cheat the system, making this logo re-imagining a bit more accurate.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Vice Is Nice, But…<\/strong><\/p>\n

When BNP Media’s Quality Magazine gave a made-up award<\/a> to publishing competitor ASQ, we came up with this incest-themed graphic.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If You Pay Me, I’ll Volunteer<\/strong><\/p>\n

We got fed up with ISO TC 176 members disingenuously claiming themselves as unpaid “volunteers,” and ran this graphic alongside the appropriate rant<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Too Soon?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Probably.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Other Consultants Are Scum<\/strong><\/p>\n

When we found out consultants were stealing our free ISO 9001 and As9100 template kits, and charging clients for them, we got pissed. Very pissed<\/a>.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What the ….?<\/strong><\/p>\n

This ran only on the Oxebridge Twitter feed<\/a>, so you may have missed it, but it’s our take on the new post-Brexit UK CE mark logo, which basically looks the same<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Hollow Man<\/strong><\/p>\n

For a while, it wasn’t clear<\/a> who was running the US TAG to TC 176.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh, Wait…<\/strong><\/p>\n

…it was Paul Palmes, who we represented with this graphic:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thug Life <\/strong><\/p>\n

ISO nicknamed<\/a> its Brand Integrity Group the “B.I.G.,” because so many of those old white guys listen to Biggie.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Imagine What Their Browser History Looks Like<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nigel Croft’s “B.I.G.” gang thought it was clever to name their ISO 9001 related plans after a 1980’s softcore porn movie.<\/p>\n
