An overview of our ISO 9001 / 27001 documentation (source: author)

We are in the unsexy, no-nonsense, but relevant business of electronic documentation. And we have customers who expect us to be ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certified.

So what could be better than using our own software product to set up and manage our ISO 9001 / 27001 documentation?

We’ve been following this approach for more than 3 years, and have successfully achieved ISO 9001 and 27001 certification.

Without help from expensive consultants.

Without a single paper folder.

However, setting up your QMS and ISMS for ISO 9001 and 27001 certification is only part of the journey. The real journey starts after the certification audit when the newly established processes need to be lived in everyday life.

That’s why there are maintenance and recertification audits after the initial certification audit. We follow an eat-your-own-dogfood approach and use our own product to document our QMS and ISMS.

If you are interested in knowing how our product works for QMS/ISMS documentation in general, I suggest you read this article.
