You've achieved your certification - great! but now what??..

So many fool themselves into the fact that once they are certified they can bury their heads in the sand for another year until their Surveillance Audit is due.

After achieving ISO certification, it's crucial for your organisation to maintain the integrity and effectiveness of your management system. This involves ongoing commitment and diligence from all levels of the organization. Regular reviews of processes and procedures should be conducted to ensure they remain aligned with ISO standards and continue to meet the evolving needs of your business and stakeholders. Additionally, it's essential to keep documentation updated, incorporating any changes or improvements as necessary. 

Continuous training and awareness programs should be implemented to ensure employees are equipped with the knowledge and skills to uphold the standards set forth by ISO. Regular internal audits in line with your Internal Audit Program and management reviews should also be carried out to identify areas for improvement and address any non-conformities promptly. 

By prioritizing the maintenance of your management system, you can sustain the benefits of ISO certification and drive ongoing improvement and success within your organization.
