ISO Certification Process

ISO Certification Process

ISO certification is a seal of approval from a third party body that a company runs to one of the international standards developed and published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The ISO certification process certifies that a management system, manufacturing process, service, or documentation procedure has all the requirements for standardization and quality assurance.

ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is an independent, non-governmental, international organization that develops standards to ensure the quality, safety, and efficiency of products, services, and systems.

Steps in ISO Certification Process

The ISO certification process involves several steps:

Step 1: Application

Submit an application to a certification body. This includes general information about your company, the standard you wish to be certified against, and the scope of your certification.

Step 2: Pre-Assessment (Optional)

A pre-assessment can identify any weaknesses in your systems or any non-conformities that need to be addressed before the formal assessment.

Step 3: Document Review

The certification body reviews your documentation to ensure it meets the requirements of the standard.

Step 4: Initial Certification Audit

This is conducted in two stages:

  • Stage 1: Review of your management system documentation and evaluation of your location and site-specific conditions. This determines your preparedness for Stage 2.
  • Stage 2: Evaluation of the implementation and effectiveness of your management system. This includes interviews, observation of processes, and review of records.
Step 5: Certification Decision

Based on the audit report, the certification body makes a decision on whether to grant certification.

Step 6: Surveillance Audits

After certification, surveillance audits are conducted periodically (usually annually) to ensure continued compliance with the standard.

Step 7: Recertification

ISO certificates are typically valid for three years. Before expiry, a recertification audit is conducted to renew the certification.
