Achieving ISO Certification is not a big deal in today’s upgraded systems. The basic steps to become ISO Certified are listed below:

• Firstly, you need to prepare all the relevant information about your company in a systematized way (It is always best and safe to hire a legal consultant.)
• Secondly, you need to document all the relevant information about your business.
• Thirdly, you have to implement all the documented information in your organization.
• Fourthly, get ready for the internal audits which are performed first during the certification process and then periodically after.
• Lastly, if the certifying body approves your management system, you will be awarded the required ISO standard.

Basically, an ISO Certificate is valid for three years. And during this time period of three years, a surveillance audit is conducted on an annual basis to ensure that ISO quality standards are being maintained by the organization.

• First of all, you need to choose an internationally accredited certification body meeting all the requirements of ISO Accreditation such as SIS CERTIFICATIONS.
• Then an application shall be created, where all the rights and obligations will be included and will be confidential between both the applicants and the registrar.
• After that, the ISO auditor will review the relevant documentation related to various procedures followed in your organization.
• The auditors will identify gaps, and if there are any gaps you have to prepare an action plan in order to remove these gaps.
• Then, there will be initial certification audits which will be followed by:
  • Stage I – where the auditors will check the changes made in your organization according to requirements.
  • Stage II – where the auditor will do their final audit for the certification.
• As the auditors will approve all your processes then they will make a report and send it to the registrar. They will then grant you the ISO certification.

 The cost of ISO certification varies from one organization to another. Basically, when you approach an internationally accredited certifying body for ISO Certification and they approve your management systems and all your processes, they will then quote an amount for the certificate. Moreover, the cost for achieving ISO certification depends mostly on your organization, such as the no. of employees in your organization, No. of branches your organization has, and many more.
