Management System Certification

Evidence before assumption.

Certification body for organisations that want their management systems tested with care, clarity and human judgement.

Human in the loop. It is how we audit: experienced people follow the evidence, ask the next question and remain accountable for the conclusion.

Certification scope

Focused by design.

Our certification scope covers three management system standards.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022

Information security management systems, for organisations seeking a structured way to manage information security risks.

ISO/IEC 42001:2023

Artificial intelligence management systems, for organisations that need accountable governance across the AI system life cycle.

ISO 9001:2015

Quality management systems, for organisations that want a disciplined, internationally recognised framework for consistent quality

The certification cycle

A visible path to a defensible decision.

Certification is more than an audit visit. It begins with application review, moves through a two-stage initial audit and continues through surveillance and recertification.

01

Application review

We confirm the proposed scope, sites, activities, scheme and audit time before accepting the engagement.

02

Stage 1 audit

We assess readiness, context, documented information and planning for the management system.

03

Stage 2 audit

We test implementation and effectiveness, record findings and gather objective evidence.

04

Decision and cycle

An independent certification decision is followed by surveillance and, normally, recertification before the cycle ends.

Independence matters

Certification without consultancy.

We do not provide consultancy on the management systems we certify. Certification decisions are based on objective evidence and protected from commercial, financial and other pressure.
