3. Stage 2 Audit: Implementation
Our team conducts an on-site or remote audit to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of your management system against the standard.
4. Review & Decision
An independent technical reviewer assesses all audit reports. Based on their recommendation, the final certification decision is made.

Upon a successful decision, your official certificate is issued, and you receive the certification mark to showcase your achievement.
