ISO Certification is recognition from an external body that a company runs to one of the internationally recognized BS EN ISO management systems. The certification can be used to tender for business as a proof of a company’s credibility but also to instill confidence in the potential client that you will keep your promises.

ISO certification is a statement to your stakeholders, employees and senior management that the business wishes to operate to a set framework in order to achieve its company objectives. By setting yourselves the task of maintaining an external certification you are proving the company’s commitment to these objectives as well as increasing the credibility and customer confidence in the brand / service or product.
