Background: Becoming
ISO9001, ISO14001, OHSAS18001 or ISO27001 registered can be a lengthy and costly process. This
helps the unaccredited certification bodies to proliferate. We sometimes hear from
businesses feeling that they have been misled by unaccredited Certification Bodies, offering
"Guaranteed ISO9000 certification in 30 days". Well, they would
guarantee it, wouldn't they? As well as telling you what to do (often using
procedures which do not change from one company to another, except for a few
mail-merged fields), they also issue
you their own ISO9001 "certificate"... But, these organisations are entirely
self-appointed and under no control by the Government-appointed agency, UKAS (United
Kingdom Accreditation Service). The businesses using their services will often find
that their customers will not accept these "certificates". So, besides wasting
thousands of pounds, businesses who have been misled in
this way will probably also find themselves not being able to tender for a lot
of work. Or they will keep filling out Tender documents or
applying to be short-listed and never managing to get on that list. IN THE UK, IF IT
ISN'T UKAS,
THEN IT ISN'T WORTH HAVING.
IT'S MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN! Solution
- FAST TRACK: We
put our thinking caps on, and decided that the best way to tackle this problem was to try to offer genuine
ISO9001, ISO14001, OHSAS18001 and ISO27001 certification (UKAS-accredited) at
a price and a speed which comes close to the unaccredited certification bodies.
-
We sat down with some UKAS-accredited Certification Bodies and
discussed this with them.
-
We looked at how we could streamline the consultancy side so as
to focus exactly on what these standards require and nothing else.
-
We looked at what it would be reasonable to expect you to do and what would be reasonable for us to do.
As a result, we can now offer:
-
ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO27001 and/or OHSAS18001 certification
