Make sure your ISO certificate is worth having
Tender committees, buyers and regulators increasingly check where a certificate came from.
Accredited certification bodies only NABCB / IAF MLA
We work only with certification bodies accredited by NABCB (India’s accreditation body under QCI) or another IAF MLA signatory for your standard and industry scope.
Verifiable online IAF CertSearch
Accredited certificates can be checked on IAF CertSearch, which many buyers and tender committees now do before accepting them.
Avoid ‘instant’ certificates Unaccredited
Certificates issued without a real audit, or by unaccredited bodies, are routinely rejected in tenders and audits and can damage your reputation.
Three-year cycle Surveillance every year
Certification runs on a three-year cycle: initial audit in two stages, surveillance audits in years two and three, then recertification.
Your ISO 45001 certification step by step
We prepare you; an accredited certification body audits and certifies. Timelines depend on your size and readiness.

OngoingISO certification support across India
Documentation and training are delivered online and on-site, and audits are scheduled with accredited certification bodies nationwide, including:
Common ISO certification mistakes
Copy-Paste Manuals
Generic templates that don’t match how you work fail on-site audits.
No Records
Auditors need evidence: records, monitoring results, internal audits and management reviews.
Wrong Scope
A scope that omits sites, products or services the buyer cares about makes the certificate useless for that tender.
Unaccredited Certificate
Non-accredited or unverifiable certificates are often rejected by GeM buyers, PSUs and exporters.
No Worker Participation
Auditors check that workers are consulted and involved, not just managers.
Combine standards and save audit time
Standards with the same high-level structure can be audited together as an integrated management system.
