Stroma Certification’s ISO 9001 Certification process follows an approved certification and surveillance procedure to certify your organisation’s Quality Management System (QMS) against the ISO 9001 standard. Our ISO 9001 auditors adhere to a detailed process in order to certify your QMS to ensure your business is compliant.
Getting your business certified for ISO 9001 requires only a 4 stage certification and surveillance procedure:
Step 1: Application
You apply for ISO 9001 Certification online and we prepare your ISO 9001 audit programme
Step 2: Initial ISO 9001 Certification
Your QMS goes through Stage 1 and Stage 2 audits before ISO 9001 Certification is awarded
Step 3: Surveillance Audits
Once certified we will audit your QMS annually to maintain standards
Step 4: Re-Certification
Every 3 years your ISO 9001 Certification will be renewed
Stroma Certification's ISO 9001 Auditors take the burden away from your business when granting ISO 9001 Certification. For a more detailed explanation of how we work to certify your QMS please read on below:
