Process

Getting ISO certified is more than earning a certificate — it’s a commitment to quality, consistency, and global credibility. At TNV Verisure Private Limited, we make the ISO certification process simple, transparent, and efficient for organizations of every size and sector. This guide walks you through the entire journey — from choosing the right certification body to maintaining your certification year after year.

Introduction

ISO certification is an independent confirmation that an organization’s management system meets international standards developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It helps businesses prove their ability to deliver products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements — while continually improving performance.
Common ISO certifications include:

ISO 9001: Quality Management
ISO 14001: Environmental Management
ISO 45001: Occupational Health & Safety
ISO 27001: Information Security
ISO 22000: Food Safety

Each standard enhances trust, operational efficiency, and competitive advantage.

Choosing an ISO Certification Body

Your choice of certification body determines the global acceptance and credibility of your ISO certificate. A professional, accredited body ensures impartiality, technical competence, and international recognition.

When selecting your certification partner, consider:

Global Recognition: The certificate should be valid worldwide for trade, tenders, and compliance.
Industry Expertise: Choose auditors who understand your industry’s standards and challenges.
Integrity and Transparency: Ensure the process is neutral, evidence-based, and ethically conducted.

TNV Verisure Private Limited (CIN: U35105UP2024PTC201002) is a globally recognized ISO certification body providing management system certifications across industries — with a focus on impartiality, reliability, and client confidence.

Prerequisites for ISO Certification

Before starting your ISO certification journey, your organization should ensure readiness in key areas:

Select the Right ISO Standard: Identify which standard suits your goals — for example, ISO 9001 for quality, ISO 14001 for environment, or ISO 27001 for data security.
Develop and Implement a Management System: Document your policies, objectives, and procedures in line with ISO requirements and ensure they are effectively implemented.
Conduct Internal Audits: Assess whether the system is functioning as intended and meets ISO criteria.
Perform Management Review: Top management must review audit results, risks, and opportunities to ensure continuous improvement.

These prerequisites create a strong foundation for successful certification.

The ISO Certification Process

ISO certification follows a structured approach that ensures fairness, accuracy, and consistency. Below is the seven-step certification process followed by TNV Verisure and most accredited certification bodies worldwide.

Step 1: Application and Scope Definition: The process begins with submitting an application that defines your organization’s details, operational scope, and chosen ISO standard(s).
Step 2: Proposal and Agreement: TNV Verisure reviews the information and issues a customized proposal outlining the audit scope, duration, and cost. Once both parties agree, a formal Certification Agreement is signed.
Step 3: Stage 1 Audit (Documentation Review): Our auditors review your documented management system to evaluate readiness and compliance with the selected ISO standard.
Step 4: Stage 2 Audit (On-Site Assessment): A detailed on-site audit verifies implementation effectiveness across departments, processes, and records.
Step 5: Corrective Actions (If Required): If any nonconformities are found, your organization must address them within an agreed timeframe. Evidence of corrections is then reviewed.
Step 6: Certification Decision and Issuance: An independent certification committee reviews all audit findings and, once compliance is confirmed, issues the ISO certificate.
Step 7: Surveillance Audits and Recertification: To maintain certification validity, annual surveillance audits are conducted. After three years, a recertification audit ensures continued conformity.

This process ensures transparency, credibility, and continuous improvement — the true spirit of ISO.

Cost Involved in ISO Certification

The cost of ISO certification is influenced by multiple factors, such as:

The size and nature of your organization.
The number of employees and sites under scope.
The ISO standard(s) being implemented.
The complexity of operations and processes.
The type of audit (initial, surveillance, or recertification).

At TNV Verisure, we maintain a transparent and value-based pricing policy — ensuring that organizations of every size can achieve certification affordably without compromising on quality or integrity.

Time Involved in the ISO Certification Process

The duration of the ISO certification process depends on multiple factors — such as your organization’s readiness, system complexity, and the standard being pursued. Rather than focusing on fixed timelines, TNV Verisure emphasizes an approach built on preparedness and quality. Our team works collaboratively with clients to ensure each stage — from documentation to final certification — progresses efficiently without compromising compliance or audit rigor.

Maintaining and Renewing ISO Certification

Achieving ISO certification is only the beginning. To maintain it, your organization must continually demonstrate compliance and improvement.

Key actions include:

Conducting regular internal audits.
Performing management reviews.
Updating documentation as per operational changes.
Implementing corrective actions on audit findings.
Participating in annual surveillance audits with TNV Verisure.

After the 3-year certification cycle, a recertification audit renews the certificate for the next term — ensuring your system remains effective and internationally valid.
