FAQ's

How long does it take to get ISO Certified?

Starting with your initial consultation with our ISO specialists and progressing through certification, the timeline can be as short as 15 days. However, the duration is contingent upon the size and complexity of your business. It's worth noting that we can often expedite the process and reduce costs by preparing the Documented Management System Manual on your behalf, which can also accelerate the certification for your business.

What is the duration of the certification?

Following ISO 17021 guidelines, accredited certification bodies must provide certified organizations with certificates covering a 3-year certification cycle. Extensions beyond this timeframe are possible with the completion of necessary external audits and adherence to the certification cycle. ISO Certification, for instance, commonly issues certificates throughout a ten-year contract period.

What is the cost associated with obtaining ISO certification?

At Company Certification, our dedication is to ensure that ISO certification remains cost-effective for all our clients. The expenses involved depend on various factors including your industry sector, annual turnover, number of employees, and other considerations. Feel free to utilize our complimentary calculator to receive an instant quote.

Is it possible for an individual to obtain ISO certification?

ISO certification is reserved for organizational entities, and not for individual professionals.

What is the purpose and significance of a management review?

A management review is a regularly scheduled meeting, occurring at least once a year, designed to facilitate the maintenance of your management system. It verifies that the system continues to meet your organization's needs and remains in compliance.

At what frequency should I conduct a management review?

You have flexibility in determining the frequency of your management reviews based on your preferences and business needs. However, it's essential to comply with ISO requirements by conducting a minimum of one management review annually.

Which individuals should participate in a management review?

A management review serves as an effective means for senior management to stay connected with a business's management system and assess its performance. Other pertinent individuals may also need to attend these meetings to provide feedback on specific processes or departments within the organization. Involving a diverse representation from across the business aids senior management in obtaining a comprehensive overview of the management system's performance.

What advantages does a management review offer?

The advantages of conducting management reviews encompass:

  • Keeping senior management informed about the performance of the management system
  • Assessing the alignment of the management system with the organization
  • Reviewing and evaluating the effectiveness of the management system
  • Providing a platform for analyzing data to support evidence-based decision-making
