ISO 9001
What is ISO 9001?
ISO 9001 outlines the requirements for a comprehensive Quality Management System (QMS) that can be tailored to fit your organization. By evaluating and optimizing your processes in line with the QMS, your organization can better achieve its goals for sustainability and growth.
With a strong 30-year history, ISO 9001 is often a prerequisite for tender applications and is widely regarded as the most credible, robust, and effective business improvement tool available.
ISO certification follows a three-year audit cycle. The initial audit is conducted in two stages: Stage One involves a review of your documented QMS, while Stage Two assesses the effectiveness of your QMS and leads to certification. The Centre for Assessment will then conduct annual review visits over the next two years. We will work within your timeframes for ISO 9001 audits and provide assistance if you have any questions about the certification process.
