Frequently asked questions
How long does a project take?
It depends on the size of your organisation, the number of sites and the controls already in place. We give you a timeline after the gap analysis.
Do you issue the certificate?
No. Certificates are issued by an independent, accredited certification body. We prepare you and support you through the audit.
Can several standards be combined?
Yes. We can build one integrated management system covering, for example, quality, environment and occupational health and safety.
