How to Register for ISO9001 - Part 2
|
|
Please note: We only work with UKAS-accredited Registrars (or
registrars accredited by organizations recognized by ISO).
|
|
You can go "fast-track".
This method requires a higher level of commitment on your part, but is a
life-safer for businesses with an urgent need to achieve ISO9000 certification.
This process typically takes between 6 to 10 weeks, depending on your
availability.
|
Achieve ISO9000 registration by a UKAS-accredited
certification body within 2 months.
We will produce all of the required
quality system documents (policies, objectives, procedures,
instructions, etc) in discussion with your senior management. We will
conduct internal audits, arrange the assessment and provide ongoing support to
maintain your ISO9000 system.
For smaller businesses, we offer a monthly payments scheme, which covers the
costs of creating your system, being assessed by the
certification body, and the ongoing auditing and certification costs.
We deliberately keep you and your senior managers "in the
picture". We don't attempt to conceal anything. Over the past
twenty years, we have found that this is the best way to make sure that
you want to keep using our services to maintain and continually improve
your system.

We can work with you on a fixed-price basis.
Having discussed your requirements, we will provide a fixed-price
quotation, covering all of the work required to enable your organization
to become ISO9000 Registered.
Typically, projects take 3 to 4 months from commencement to
completion. This is better suited to businesses that do not have much
time to spare.,
depending on your availability and the availability of the certification body.

We will produce all of the required
quality system documents (policies, objectives, procedures,
instructions, etc) in discussion with your senior management.
We will involve the senior managers as we go along, so that they
understand fully all that is required of them and why.
We will conduct internal quality audits as the system develops, and
make changes to the procedures and instructions as needed.
We will chair your first Management Review, and any subsequent
reviews if you wish.
We will assist you to select a suitable UKAS accredited certification
body and apply
for registration/assessment.
We will attend during the Quality Registrar's assessment of your
system.
Following assessment, we can continue the process of internal
auditing, revising and improving your system, chairing the management
reviews, etc. Many Clients use us in order to keep their systems healthy
and relevant,

We can work with you on an "ad-hoc" basis.
|
Many clients ask us to review their documentation prior to assessment, etc. Most reviews only take a
single day. Clients also ask us to conduct internal audits of the system, ahead
of the Quality Registrar's visit. Often, only a single day's auditing is
required. Again, we will give you a fixed-price quotation in advance.
For a large number of clients, we conduct all of their internal audits,
update their system documentation and attend their management reviews (in many
cases, without our involvement, these essential tasks would not be conducted on
time!)
We are also often asked by new clients to convert their existing system into
a user-friendly, beneficial system, rather than the paper-bound encyclopaedic
system that they have.
For these services, we charge by the day. We are always happy to quote in advance, and all of our
quotes are fixed price, so that you know in advance what you will be
getting from us and what you will be paying for it.

You can do it yourself.
This process typically takes between 12 to 26 weeks, depending on your
level of commitment and availability. (Some clients have achieved registration
in shorter periods, and some take much longer).
|
We can provide help with this, if you wish. For example, we can conduct a review
of your manuals, or conduct a "top-to-toe" audit of your system.
Or we can conduct a limited audit of whatever you feel would be most useful.
