How to Achieve Certification

How to achieve certification falls broadly into three simple steps, regardless of the type of certification you require:

Application and review

This includes the completion of a request for quote form which includes details of your business and your certification requirements. Its enables us to accurately define the scale and scope of your certification, provide a quotation and allocate a suitably experienced audit team.

Main evaluation or certification audit

For most types of certification this is a two phase process including at least one on-site audit, a written report on the audit findings and the identification of any non-conformances that need to be addressed.

Certification

On completion of the first two stages and the closure of non-conformances, certification is granted, a certificate and certification marks are issued and certification is maintained through a planned programme of audit checks followed by a re-certification audit in the year before certification expires.
