The added value of ISO 9001
Quality management matters to the whole organisation. ISO 9001 ensures that your organisation meets the wishes, requirements and needs of clients and other stakeholders in terms of quality. Embedding laws and regulations also plays a part in setting up your business processes.
An ISO 9001 certificate is issued by an independent, authorised body. Because obtaining and maintaining it takes considerable effort and internal capacity, the certificate increases the reliability of your service or product.
Our approach
- Start: a baseline assessment, giving insight into expected time commitment, division of tasks, roles and costs.
- Setting up the management system: a practical, workable quality management system in line with ISO 9001 and your needs.
- Internal audit: a review against the standard, laws and regulations and your internal procedures.
- Management review: an assessment of effectiveness by the board or management.
- Certification support: guidance during the external audit by a certification body. Privacy Direct does not issue ISO certificates itself.
- Maintenance: periodic updates, so you continue to comply with the standard and the regulations.
If you wish, we can also act as your DPO (Data Protection Officer) or quality manager, so you can focus on your core activities.
