ISO Certification – what is it?

Certification, which is a written assurance, that is granted by an accredited certification body. This certification confirms that a particular product, process, system, or individual meets specific ISO requirements, contributing to the continuous improvement of a product or service.

What is involved with achieving ISO Certification?

Compliance to ISO Standards are conducted by third party assessors via a series of conformity assessments, checks, and audits. If compliance is met, the accredited certification body provides formal recognition in the form of a certificate, affirming that the system, process, or product adheres to specific ISO standards.
