Food and Hospitality
Food manufacturers and organizations operating within the food supply chain can use ISO 22000 and HACCP-based systems to structure food safety processes.
Laboratories and Inspection Organizations
Testing laboratories, calibration laboratories, inspection bodies, and medical laboratories may require ISO/IEC 17025, ISO/IEC 17020, or ISO 15189 depending on their scope.
ISO 42001 AI Management System
Artificial intelligence is becoming part of products, services, and internal business processes across Europe and other global markets.
ISO/IEC 42001 provides a management system framework for organizations involved in developing, providing, or using AI systems.
Qualitcert can support organizations in understanding ISO 42001 requirements, conducting gap assessments, establishing management system processes, and preparing for independent certification assessment.
Service organizations may receive customer requests for independent assurance over their controls.
SOC 1 focuses on controls relevant to customers’ internal control over financial reporting, while SOC 2 addresses controls based on the AICPA Trust Services Criteria.
Qualitcert provides readiness and consulting support to help organizations understand their scope, identify relevant controls, organize evidence, and prepare for an independent examination.
Qualitcert’s consulting approach can include the following stages:
Initial Consultation
We understand the organization’s activities, scope, locations, existing systems, customer expectations, and certification objectives.
Gap Assessment
Existing practices are reviewed against the applicable standard requirements.
Management System Development
Policies, procedures, controls, objectives, records, and other documented information can be developed or improved where required.
Implementation
The management system is integrated into relevant business activities.
Internal Audit
An internal audit helps evaluate implementation and identify areas requiring corrective action or improvement.
Management Review
Management reviews system performance, objectives, audit results, risks, opportunities, and improvement needs.
Certification Readiness
The organization prepares for assessment by an independent certification body.
Integrated Management Systems
European organizations implementing several ISO standards may benefit from an integrated approach.
Common combinations include ISO 9001 with ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, or ISO 27001 combined with ISO 20000-1.
Qualitcert can help organizations identify common processes and reduce unnecessary duplication while maintaining the specific requirements of each applicable standard.
Why Work With Qualitcert?
Qualitcert provides consulting support across management systems, information security, privacy, governance, and compliance.
Our approach is based on understanding the organization’s actual processes rather than applying a generic documentation package.
We help organizations identify practical gaps, improve their systems, prepare evidence, and understand what is expected during an independent assessment or examination.
