Management System Certification

Independent audit and certification of management systems against ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 22000, HACCP and more.

A certificate is only worth what the audit behind it is worth. ITA audits management systems on site against international standards and bases every certification decision on objective evidence.

The certification process

  1. Application — you tell us the scope, sites, number of employees and main processes.
  2. Proposal — we confirm the audit time, the audit team and the fee in a written proposal.
  3. Stage 1 audit — we review your documented system and your readiness, and agree the plan for stage 2.
  4. Stage 2 audit — auditors evaluate on site how the system is implemented and how effective it is.
  5. Decision — once any nonconformities are closed, the certification decision is made by people who did not take part in the audit.
  6. Surveillance — surveillance audits during the certificate cycle, then a recertification audit before the certificate expires.

What we need to prepare your proposal

Impartiality: certification audits are carried out and decided independently of ITA’s consultancy and training activities. We do not certify a management system that ITA helped to design or implement.

Frequently asked questions

How long does certification take?

It depends on how ready your system is and on the size of your organisation. The audit time is calculated from your number of employees, sites and the complexity of your activities, and is stated in our proposal.

How much does it cost?

The fee follows the audit time, so it differs from one organisation to another. Send the certification request form and we will send a written proposal.

Is the certificate accredited?

The accreditation status that applies to your standard and scope is stated in our written proposal, so you know it before you sign.

What happens if the auditors find nonconformities?

You receive a written report. You then send your correction and corrective action, with evidence, within the agreed time before the certification decision is made.
