How Does Remote ISO Certification Work?

The USAS-accredited certification process is one of the UK's – if not the world’s – best kept ISO certification secrets. It allows British businesses to get certified online; in fact, it allows any business anywhere in the world to achieve and maintain ISO certification.

Our remote ISO 9001 audits allow you to complete the whole ISO certification process online.

Using up-to-date communication methods and remote ISO assessment audits, our accreditation body (USAS) has developed an online process that enables certification bodies such as ISO Accelerator to offer accredited ISO certification online.

We offer a remote QMS development and certification service that completely eliminates the need for on-site consultation sessions and time-consuming on-site audits. This enables business owners to obtain ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and/or ISO 27001 certification without the usual hassle and expenditure.

Our ISO certification process

ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 27001 are international standards – ISO themselves do not have anything to do with certification. Their role is to develop and to publish these international standards.

The purpose of 3rd party certification is to provide external validation that you are doing what you say you are doing and that it complies with the relevant ISO standard.

It is a myth that certification bodies must be a member of a nationally-accredited body in their country of business. If this were true, we would not be able to operate as a legal limited company based in the UK offering certification. The bottom line is that our business model, prices and values of safe, secure and sustainable certification are disruptive to the traditional world of certification. We can offer a worldwide service at any time.

Remote ISO 9001 audits can make the ISO certification process cheaper, saving you money in a number of different ways – most notably by removing the need for a third-party auditor to visit your facility.

Our service also allows you to get certified faster than usual. So why wait to achieve ISO 9001 certification for your business?


How long does the certification process take?

ISO Accelerator is a fast, straightforward way to gain ISO certification.

While the exact time scale does vary from one case to the next, it typically takes approximately 7 days to get certified via our service.

For an additional fee we also offer a fast-track option, meaning that ISO certification can be achieved in as little as 2 days.
We can also help you to reduce costs if your business already has a quality management system in place and you’re just looking to get certified (or change your certification body). Please contact us today to discuss your requirements.
