Helping you with Certifications

What help do you need?
Business Improvement Services can provide whatever help you need to prepare for a certification assessment for both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, whether together or as separate projects. We can offer hands-on help throughout the implementation or just provide the necessary documentation to get you started, but whatever your need we will always be there with generous advice and guidance. We specialise primarily in both the quality management standard ISO 9001 and the environmental system standard ISO 14001. These standards can be implemented separately as well as together as they do contain many commonalities and can be readily integrated.

ISO 9001
Many of the clients of Business Improvement Services who have attained ISO 9001 have said that the consultancy help we provide has definitely helped them to do things in a more consistent and effective way.

Our very practical and common sense approach to ISO 9001 consultancy means relatively easy maintenance with the minimum of overheads.

ISO 14001
With continuing focus in the media on climate change it is becoming increasingly important for all types of organisation to demonstrate how they are managing their use of non renewable resources and reducing waste.

ISO 14001 provides a management system framework that will help your business or organisation to identify opportunities for reducing your carbon footprint, potentially reducing costs and raising your environmental profile among your potential customers.

Both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 are increasingly becoming standard pre-requisites for any firms or subcontractors who wish to tender for public sector or other major contracts.

"In all we feel that the experience has been a positive one and one which should be beneficial in taking us through our expansion programme and into the future. Many thanks Brian for your help and patience with the set up process." The Insolvency Advisory Service

How we can help
Whether you just need some advice on these standards or you've already decided where you need to get to, we can help you achieve your goal via an approach that suits your organisation.

A tailored solution: Rather than offering an "out of the box" solution, we ensure that the eventual management system, be it ISO 9001, ISO 14001 or both, is very much tailored around your own business. In this way both management and staff will feel greater ownership as well finding it easier to maintain in the longer term.

Optimising: When implementing ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 we aim for a good balance between the need to document procedures whilst avoiding unnecessary overheads. Wherever possible, documentation will be written in the language or style appropriate to your own organisation with clearly defined procedures for ease of understanding.

The right approach: We can offer a range of consultant Services depending on the extent that you wish to utilise your own internal resources, as well as any budget constraints. The help we can provide ranges from a basic "kick start" comprising the essential documentation, through to full consultancy taking you right through to certification.

"We thoroughly enjoyed working with Brian and his practical, pragmatic and tailored approach made the process enjoyable, successful and also immensely beneficial. We are delighted that we passed the ISO 9001 & ISO 14001 inspections with flying colours and gained two valuable accreditations, and we now have a set of robust procedures in place to allow us to expand the company and follow up new opportunities."” MBM Omega Ltd.
