Expert ISO 9001 & ISO 22000 Certification Services

ISO 9001 is a general Quality Management System (QMS) standard applicable to any industry, focusing on customer satisfaction and process improvement. ISO 22000 is a specific Food Safety Management System (FSMS) standard designed for organizations in the food chain. It incorporates the core principles of ISO 9001 but adds specific requirements for food safety, including Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) to manage foodborne risks.

The process involves developing and implementing a Food Safety Management System that meets the standard's requirements. This includes establishing prerequisite programs (PRPs), conducting a hazard analysis (HACCP), and creating process documentation. After implementation, you undergo an internal audit and management review, followed by a two-stage certification audit conducted by an accredited third-party registrar. Our consulting services guide you through every one of these steps for a successful outcome.

The total cost varies based on your organization's size, complexity, and current state of your processes. We provide a fixed-price quotation after a complimentary discovery meeting, which covers all consulting, training, and system development. The final certification fee is paid separately to the third-party registrar you select. Our fixed-price model ensures there are no surprises and you know the full consulting cost upfront.

A typical implementation timeline can range from 6 to 12 months, depending on the size and complexity of your organization and the engagement level of your team. Our proven, modular approach is designed to be highly efficient. We establish a clear timetable as part of our fixed-price quotation, so you have a clear roadmap from project start to the final certification audit.

Integrating ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 creates a single, streamlined management system. This reduces administrative overhead, eliminates redundant documentation and procedures, and lowers implementation and audit costs. It provides a holistic view of both quality and food safety, leading to more efficient operations, better risk management, and a stronger overall commitment to excellence and consumer protection, which is highly valued by customers and regulators.
