Other ISO Standards Consulting
Besides the base ISO 9001 Quality Management System, below are a list of other standards that one can choose according to what business you specialise in.
ISO 27001:2013 – Information and Data Security
ISO 27001 (formally known as ISO/IEC 27001:2005) is a specification for an information security management system (ISMS).
An ISMS is a framework of policies and procedures that includes all legal, physical and technical controls involved in an organisation’s information risk management processes.
ISO 50001:2011 – Energy Management System
ISO 50001:2011 is based on the management system model of continual improvement also used for other well-known standards such as ISO 9001:2015 or ISO 14001:2004. This makes it easier for organisations to integrate energy management into their overall efforts to improve quality and environmental management.
ISO 50001:2011 provides a framework of requirements for organizations to:
- Develop a policy for more efficient use of energy
- Fix targets and objectives to meet the policy
- Use data to better understand and make decisions about energy use
- Measure the results
- Review how well the policy works, and
- Continually improve energy management.
ISO 22301:2012 – Business Continuity
ISO 22301:2012 specifies requirements to plan, establish, implement, operate, monitor, review, maintain and continually improve a documented management system to protect against, reduce the likelihood of occurrence, prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptive incidents when they arise.
The requirements specified in ISO 22301:2012 are generic and intended to be applicable to all organisations, or parts thereof, regardless of type, size and nature of the organisation. The extent of application of these requirements depends on the organisation’s operating environment and complexity.
ISO 13485:2016 – Medical Devices
ISO 13485:2016 specifies requirements for a quality management system where an organisation needs to demonstrate its ability to provide medical devices and related services that consistently meet customer and applicable regulatory requirements. Such organisations can be involved in one or more stages of the life-cycle, including design and development, production, storage and distribution, installation, or servicing of a medical device and design and development or provision of associated activities (e.g. technical support). ISO 13485:2016 can also be used by suppliers or external parties that provide product, including quality management system-related services to such organisations.
ISO/IEC 17025:2017 – Laboratory Competence
ISO 17025 gives your clients and supply chain absolute assurance of your integrity. All organisations carrying out tests and calibrations must conform to the general requirements for competence in laboratory environments. ISO 17025:2017 applies to all laboratory environments, regardless of the number of employees or the extent of the testing.
ISO 22000:2018 – Food Safety
