ISO in a Box helps companies gain UKAS-accredited certification in six months

Aug. 30, 2012 - PRLog -- Following a review of the current management system, the ISO in a Box documents and system structure can be tailored to meet the individual requirements of the organisation. This provides an efficient method of enhancing existing processes, incorporating employee training support to ensure the new systems are successfully implemented.

A formal check is then undertaken to ensure the implementation has been done correctly, after which a certification audit is performed by a UKAS accredited organisation.

"ISO in a Box provides one of the fastest and most efficient routes to UKAS-accredited ISO certification," an Equas spokesperson commented. "The time frame for completion depends on the size and complexity of an organisation, as well as the status of existing management systems. For some companies, the process can be completed within just a few weeks.  However, the normal time frame is between three and six months."

ISO in a Box is simple to implement and use and benefits from hands-on support provided by experienced, professional consultants. There is no unnecessary paperwork and it can be adapted for varying budgets and requirements.

The solution can be used to achieve ISO 9001, 14001, 27001, 17025 and 50001 as well as OHSAS 18001. Each one is in place to help organisations improve different areas of the business, such as meeting customer needs, environmental commitment, information security, laboratory testing, energy efficiency, and health and safety requirements.

ISO 9001, one of the most sought-after and well-recognised ISO standards in the world, helps organisations to maintain the internal processes that ensure the products or services they provide consistently meet the needs of customers.

The Equas spokesperson said: "The benefits of standards like ISO 9001 are endless. Not only can it help organisations to become more efficient, but it can enhance customer satisfaction and enhance perceptions to a wider audience. In these highly competitive times, having ISO certification can also be a great differentiator when it comes to outperforming the competition and achieving long-term stability and success."
