ISO Certification - What is ISO Conformity assessment?

ISO Certification

What is ISO? Established in 1947 as a non-governmental organization, ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the world's largest publisher of standards in 157 countries.

What is ISO Conformity assessment?

A conformity assessment is a survey of your quality system to establish the differences between your system and the ISO 9001 requirements. This is usually performed by a ISO specialist (consultant or professional ISO auditor).

By doing this assessment, you will know the shortcomings of your quality system and what you need to correct to be certified ISO 9001:2000.

If you have a rather large organization and want to make sure that your standards are in accordance with the requirements of ISO standards, having a conformity assessment by an ISO specialist will help you get ready for your ISO certification.
