What does certification cost?
Perhaps not as much as you think - fees are based on size and complexity of your business.
Fees are only due at the time of each phase, and a pre-payment schedule can be arranged if preferred.
Preparing for your first certification?
Here's how to get started:
Information
Purchase a copy of the ISO standard(s) for your desired certifications.
PQA can help you certify for 9001, 13485, 14001 or 45001.
Standards are available for purchase at https://iso.org and many other vendors
Training
Learn what the ISO standard you are considering requires of your company. As a value-added service to our clients, PQA provides several levels of training.

Documentation
Develop and implement your Management System documentation: It defines who you are as a company, your client types, your goals, and the processes and controls that you use to address the inherent risks in your processes.
Keep records to prepare for your Step 2, gap analysis audit.
Remember that it’s YOUR system – it must work for you, and it must reflect what you do on a day-to-day basis. Call us if you need a list of consultant referrals to help you prepare for certification!
