What’s so difficult about owning a company or organization in San Diego, California? Having to meet all the requirements established in standards such as ISO 9001, IEC 27001, and many others. Part of guaranteeing that your organization will be part of the industry you are aiming for and deliver the best for its clients and customers is having to implement standards that help to establish, maintain, and improve different sections and aspects. 

If you are not familiar with what standards or ISO mean, they are basically about a series of norms and requirements established in documents that help companies to meet law regulations. But also, to obtain specific outcomes for different systems, processes, and elements in the company. ISO 9001 is the most common and easiest example to take for this explanation. Also, we are sure you will need to implement it anyway, so it’s a very good way to have you introduced to it. 

Following what we have been telling you so far, ISO 9001 is a generic standard that provides guidelines for the establishment, maintenance, control, and improvement of a quality management system.

We can do more than just implement standards and training you

Part of the entire process of implementing the ISO you need and getting certified with it is the final step: the audit. Every company that is aiming for certification needs to go through a legal audit to ensure it has met all the requirements and finally, get certified. However, not everyone is allowed to do and those companies and organizations in charge of it need to meet a standard as well. 

Audit Management Systems ISO 19011 is the generic standard for organizations in this field and helps them to understand how to create audit programs, perform them, and how to improve the process of auditing other companies. 

If you are aiming for its implementation, at IQC The ISO Pros, we can help you to understand it by providing training but also handle the implementation for you. On the other hand, our company also offers audits in case you require them: 

  • Outsourced Internal Auditing: it’s an internal audit but rather than performed for the team in the company that requires it, it’s handled by a third-party to find any irregularities. 
  • Virtual Internal Audits: focuses on conducting the audit remotely instead of having to do it with all the members of the process face to face and dealing with a lot of paperwork. 
  • Second Party Audits: consists of performing an external audit on a supplier that is requested for the customer itself. 
  • Documentation Audit/Desk Audit: conducting it determines if a worker or employee in the company is getting properly paid for his or her role and all the work that is getting done. If not, a salary increase is required. 
  • Pre-assessment Audits: before the official audit for certification, it is possible to perform a pre-assessment one to determine if the organization has met all the requirements and guidelines in the ISO. 
  • Supplier Audits: conducted to determine if the supplier has met all the regulations and gotten certified in the mandatory standards and evaluate if it offers high-quality products and top services.
  • Supplier Evaluation: it is performed to identify potential suppliers and approve them based on the productivity and potential it shows with its services, products, management systems, and more.
  • Compliance Audits: it’s an independent evaluation of the organization to determine if it has fulfilled all mandatory regulations, standards, and follows the correct processes.
