Certification Body

ISO certification, done the honest way.

We audit management systems and issue certificates against five ISO standards. Every certificate we issue carries a number anyone can check on our public register — because a certificate nobody can verify is not worth printing.

Read This First

What we are, and what we are not yet

We are a certification body. We audit your management system against the standard and, if it holds up, we issue the certificate ourselves. We do not sell consultancy to the organisations we certify — ISO/IEC 17021-1 forbids it, and we would rather turn away that work than have our certificates questioned later.

On accreditation, plainly: we are building our system to ISO/IEC 17021-1 and are working towards accreditation from NABCB, the national accreditation board under the Quality Council of India. We are not accredited yet. Until we are, our certificates carry no accreditation mark and no IAF recognition, and we will tell you that before you buy — not after.

That matters because it decides whether we are the right body for you. If your customer, tender or export buyer specifically requires an accredited certificate, say so at the start and we will tell you honestly to go elsewhere for now. If what you need is a real audit that improves the business and a certificate that can be verified, we can do that today.

How to check anyone, including us: a certificate is only as good as the register behind it. Ours is public — verify any certificate number here. When a body claims accreditation, confirm it with the accreditation board directly, not from the logo on the paper. Certificates sold in two days with no audit are issued by bodies that have neither a register nor an accreditation, and they fail the moment anyone looks.

Standards We Handle

Five standards, and when each one is worth doing

ISO 9001:2015

Quality Management System

The one most businesses need first, and the one most tenders ask for. It is not about product quality directly — it is about having a repeatable system: defined processes, records that prove you followed them, and a habit of fixing the root cause when something goes wrong.

  • Usually required for government and corporate tenders
  • Applies to any sector — manufacturing, IT, services, trading
  • Process mapping, quality manual, SOPs, records
  • Internal audit and management review cycle
  • Corrective action and continual improvement

Information Security Management

The one that gets asked for the moment you handle someone else's data — SaaS platforms, IT services, BPOs, fintech. It is the heaviest of the five to implement honestly, because it demands real controls, not just paperwork: access reviews, backups you have actually tested, incident logs, risk treatment decisions you can defend.

  • Risk assessment and Statement of Applicability
  • Annex A controls mapped to what you really do
  • Access control, backup, incident and change policies
  • Asset register and supplier security review
  • Business continuity and tested recovery

Environmental Management System

Asked for by larger buyers, export customers and increasingly by anyone with an ESG policy. It covers how you identify environmental impact — waste, emissions, energy, water — and what you do about it, including staying on the right side of pollution control rules.

  • Environmental aspect and impact register
  • Legal and regulatory compliance register
  • Waste, emission and resource controls
  • Emergency preparedness and response
  • Objectives with measurable targets

Occupational Health & Safety

For anyone with a factory floor, a site, machinery or field staff. It replaced OHSAS 18001. The audit looks for evidence that hazards were identified before an incident, not explanations written after one.

  • Hazard identification and risk assessment
  • Safe operating procedures and permits to work
  • PPE, training and competence records
  • Incident reporting and investigation
  • Worker consultation and participation

Food Safety Management

For food processing, packaging, storage, transport and catering. Built around HACCP — identifying where contamination can enter and controlling those points with evidence. Often required by retail chains and for export.

  • HACCP plan and critical control points
  • Prerequisite programmes (hygiene, pest, cleaning)
  • Traceability and recall procedure
  • Supplier approval and incoming checks
  • Monitoring records and verification

See It Before You Buy

What our certificate actually looks like

These are specimens, rendered live by the same template that prints a real certificate — so what you see here is what you would receive. Each carries a number that is deliberately not on our register, the signature block is left blank, and the footer says plainly that no organisation is certified by it. Ask any certification body for this before you pay; if they will not show you one, that tells you something.

Note what is not on it: no accreditation mark and no IAF symbol. Those are granted by an accreditation body under licence and we do not hold them yet, so the certificate says so in its own footer rather than leaving you to find out later.

How It Runs

How an audit with us runs

Step 01

Application and review

You tell us your scope, headcount and sites. We work out the audit duration from that and put it in writing. If we have ever given you management system consultancy, we stop here and tell you we cannot certify you.

Step 02

Contract and audit plan

Scope wording, dates, audit team and fees agreed before anything starts. You get the auditor names in advance and can object to any of them with reason.

Step 03

Stage 1 — documentation readiness

Usually off site. We check whether your system exists on paper and whether you are ready for a real audit. If you are not, we say so — going into Stage 2 unready wastes your money.

Step 04

Stage 2 — implementation, on site

The real audit. We look for evidence that the system runs, not that it was written. Findings are raised as major or minor non-conformities, or as opportunities for improvement.

Step 05

Closing non-conformities

You submit correction, root cause and corrective action. We verify with evidence. A major non-conformity blocks certification until it is closed — our own system will not let the decision through otherwise.

Step 06

Certification decision

Taken by someone who was not on the audit team. That separation is a hard requirement, and our system enforces it rather than trusting anyone to remember.

Step 07

Certificate issued

Three years, with your certificate number on our public register from the day it is issued. Scope on the certificate is the scope we audited — no wider.

Step 08

Surveillance and recertification

Surveillance audits in year one and year two, recertification in year three. Miss a surveillance audit and the certificate is suspended, and the register will say so publicly.

Straight Answers

Questions people actually ask

Can you guarantee we will get certified?

No. If a body guarantees the outcome before auditing, the audit is decoration. What we will tell you honestly after Stage 1 is whether you are ready for Stage 2 — so you are not paying for an audit you are going to fail.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the standard, your headcount and how many sites are in scope, because those decide the audit duration. We put the man-day calculation in the quote so you can see how the number was arrived at rather than being handed a figure.

We were quoted ₹5,000 for a certificate in two days. Why are you different?

Because that is a printed document, not a certification. No audit happened, and there is usually no register to check it against. Ask them for the verification link and the accreditation number, then check both. If either is missing, you know what you bought.

How do we check whether a certificate is genuine?

Search the issuing body's own register by certificate number, and confirm any claimed accreditation with the accreditation board directly. Ours is at the Verify link in the menu — put in any number and it will tell you valid, suspended, withdrawn or expired, live.

How long is the certificate valid?

Three years, with a surveillance audit in each of the first two years and recertification in the third. Miss a surveillance audit and the certificate can be suspended or withdrawn.

Can we do more than one standard together?

Yes, and the audit is shorter than doing them separately because an integrated system shares documentation, internal audits and management reviews. ISO 9001 with 14001 and 45001 is the usual combination.

Not sure which standard you need?

Tell us your industry and who is asking for the certificate. That settles which standard and how wide the scope needs to be — and whether we are the right body for you at this stage.
