How to Get an ISO Certificate?
Before applying to an authorized certification body to obtain an ISO certificate, you must follow the steps below in order and implement them completely within the company.
In this first stage of the certification process, a draft project plan is created by contacting the company managers and/or officials regarding the subject of the consultancy service. In this context, the company is asked to appoint a project manager and to identify the people who will take part in the project. These individuals are given basic informational training about the project. For example, if ISO 9001 Quality Management System Certification service is to be provided, the content, scope, necessity, importance, and benefits of the ISO 9001 standard are explained, and the general outlines of the certification process are mentioned.
At this stage, the current situation of the company regarding the relevant management system, social compliance audit methodology, or product or system certification is analyzed. An attempt is made to determine how ready the company is to receive the said certificate. In this context, the company's organizational structure, currently implemented management systems, legal procedures, internally created business processes, resources used, etc., are comprehensively evaluated. After all this research, the previously drafted project plan is finalized, and a more precise project plan is prepared in line with the company's goals and policies. At this stage, the work steps and time information in the project are more realistic.
In the third stage of the consultancy process, detailed ISO training is planned for company officials and project managers regarding the product, system, process, audit, or standard for which the certificate will be obtained. These trainings are specially prepared and more detailed, considering the company's current situation, potential, and goals, far beyond standard informational training. The duration of the training may vary depending on factors such as the scope of the certification service, the company's current situation, and the participant profile. At the end of the training, participants are given a training certificate. Depending on the certification subject and the employees involved in the project, different training may be provided to different people.
One of the most important steps in the consultancy process is the installation of the system related to the ISO standard, method, or methodology for which certification will be carried out within the company. At this stage, the most efficient system model is developed depending on the company's structure, resources, and potential. The internal processes of this system and its relationships with other systems are determined, and the system is ensured to work quickly, accurately, transparently, and consistently. At this stage, changes may be made to the technical infrastructure for the system to work as desired. A documentation structure is created related to the established system (e.g., ISO 14001 Environmental Management System), and the type and content of the documents to be prepared are determined. Project managers are informed about why, how, and when which document is prepared, and necessary support is provided to them during the preparation process.
After all preparations are completed and the system installation is carried out, the system is put into operation, and some pilot applications are made. At this stage, the system is tested in a specific part of the company's processes, not all of them. The operation of the system is constantly monitored; deficiencies and points that need improvement are identified, and necessary interventions are made. Certain indicators are used to maximize system performance, and various measurements and evaluations are made. When it is decided that the best result has been obtained from the implementation of the system, the next stage is started.
When the final step of the consultancy service process you will receive from our organization to obtain an ISO Certificate is reached, the company has reached the maturity to apply for certification.
