How ISO Certification Works
Certification is not a bureaucratic maze. It is a clear, predictable 4-stage journey with a defined timeline. See exactly what happens at each step and how long it takes.
The 4 stages of certification
Assessment (Gap Analysis)
We map your current state and identify the gaps against the standard’s requirements. By the end you know exactly what is needed and how long it will take.
Design & Documentation
We build the management system and procedures, tailored to the way you actually operate — not off-the-shelf templates that fit nowhere.
Implementation & Training
We support roll-out in practice and train your team. We run an internal audit to make sure everything works.
Audit & Certification
We ensure you are fully prepared for a successful audit.
Timeline & validity
Typical duration from initial assessment to certification, depending on your size and readiness.
Validity of the certificate, with 2 annual surveillance audits in between.
Our goal is for you to receive your certificate with no delays.
After certification
Our support does not stop at the certificate. We take on the annual surveillances, internal audits and system updates, so it stays alive and compliant with no stress for you.
