There remains some doubt in the minds of many as to the need for ISO 9001 Certification. Is there any advantage in being ISO certified, and what the procedure is for it? Well, to become certified, the company has to pass an audit that is conducted by an external certification body, or an ISO consultancy. ISO consultants may be there in almost every city of every country. Some of these consultants are established and reputed as well, like Orison QEHS LLP in Singapore.

Being ISO 9001 Certified means there is a badge of trust associated with the company. Many customers see that as a must-have for any company they do business with. In the long term, that certification by an ISO consultant may become more fruitful with the customer returning to that company with its business, and thus adding to the reputation of the company as well. That of course also becomes noticeable in the income the company generates.

Environmental Impact Assessment is another important part of many companies these days. Environmental friendly infrastructure, and making sure the project of the company does not impact the environment negatively, be it in physical, chemical, biological or even cultural components of the environment is now being embraced by many companies as well. Another related aspect, though it can be standalone too, is Industrial Hygiene Monitoring. There are consultancies which help to monitor these and give a report to the company that can further lead to improvement of working conditions for the company’s staff as well.

When a stamp of trust is there to verify the company’s compliance to these important details, the company can become a certified success in its targets.
