ISO certified with a trusted accredited body.
ISO certification is issued by accredited third-party certification bodies — not by a government authority. SS Marks assists businesses in preparing for certification by conducting a gap assessment, developing required documentation (quality manuals, SOPs, procedures), conducting internal audits, and coordinating with an accredited certification body for the Stage 1 and Stage 2 external audits.
Documents required
- Details of business processes to be certified (scope of certification)
- Current process documentation and procedures (if any)
- Organisational chart and key roles
- List of interested parties and their requirements
- Previous audit reports (if seeking to switch certification bodies)

ISO 9001 is a Quality Management System standard applicable to any organisation. ISO 27001 is an Information Security Management System standard — specifically for organisations that handle sensitive information.
