Brexit seems to have been on everyone's minds for as long as we can remember, but it looks like things are finally coming to a head. At the beginning of January, MP's gave their backing for a withdrawal agreement bill that will see the UK leave the EU on January 31st. So, with this in mind, many UK businesses are starting to consider their relationship with the US.
The relationship between the UK and the USA has always been one of mutual support, but once Brexit is over with, we can expect this to strengthen even more. US president, Donald Trump is said to be "excited" about the closer post-Brexit relations that are likely to develop over the coming months. Meanwhile, our own Prime Minister is prioritising a trade deal with the US and plans to get this underway as soon as possible.
At this point, there's no doubt that British and American businesses need to start evolving and creating closer ties. We may find we have an influx of US customers looking for British products and services and vice versa. So, how can you prepare your business?
Gain your ISO accreditation through ISO Accelerator!
If you do want to build business trades with the US, you'll benefit from gaining your ISO certification through ISO Accelerator. Why? because we are accredited by USAS, a company based in Florida, USA. American businesses (and customers) will have confidence in your quality management systems if they see you've been certified by us. Plus, when you choose to gain certification through us, you'll be able to gain your ISO certification in as little as 7 days!
So, if you are not yet ISO certified, but you'd like to get the ball rolling pre-Brexit, simply use the buttons below to get started. If you'd like to speak to us directly, you can give us a call on 01308 302 010.

Small companies can take action in 2020 to help solve the climate emergency by switching to a sustainable certification company like ISO Accelerator.
Traditional methods of achieving ISO accreditation involve the accreditor taking time out to conduct multiple consultation sessions and site visits. Depending on where the accreditor and applying organisation are based, of course, this could potentially involve hours of travel, resulting in not just time and money expenses, but unnecessary damage to the environment through various methods of travel and the use of resources.
With ISO Accelerator, however, these arduous, time-consuming and damaging processes are completely eliminated through our accreditation programme. Our online process allows smaller organisations to apply for and gain ISO accreditation without ever having to leave their premises, reducing the potential impact on the environment.
But it doesn’t end there. Not only can you achieve a more sustainable accreditation, but accreditation itself will enable your business to become more sustainable through the implementation of more efficiency-based procedures. A sustainable accreditation process married with a sustainable outcome.

For companies seeking ISO accreditation, attaining certification online can boast a wide variety of benefits. Not only can it help save you money and reduce the financial burden of the accreditation process, it can also save time and reduce the workload for you and your team.
However, in addition to these obvious benefits, there are also less publicised perks to online ISO accreditation that go far beyond man hours and budget figures. Online accreditation can also help contribute to a healthier environment as well.
Professional Responsibility
As the 21st century enters its third decade, the world is becoming increasingly conscious of the environmental impact and ecological stress we are and have been putting on the Earth.
As a result, planetary conservation is a growing concern at the forefront of the general public and one that has crossed over to the professional realm in recent years.
For many companies, steps are being taken to limit harmful emissions, reduce carbon footprint and generally lessen the environmental impact of the business.
However, you don't have to replace your computers with typewriters and work by candlelight to make your workplace more eco-friendly. You can contribute to a healthier environment simply by going digital with ISO Accelerator…
Environmental Benefits of Online Accreditation
While digital ISO certification doesn't actively make the environment healthier, it does provide a green solution that significantly decreases the harmful processes that do adversely affect the planet.
With business conducted solely online, digital certification eliminates the necessity for a physical auditor to visit sites in person. As a result, the auditor isn't required to travel, saving fuel and reducing emissions in the process.
On the surface, that may seem insignificant; however, when multiplied, the results can be altogether remarkable. Eliminating the annual travel of a single auditor can reduce CO2 emissions quite literally by tonnes and have a dramatic impact on the environment as a result.
To find out more about the environmental benefits of online ISO accreditation or for additional details on digital ISO certification, why not drop us a line today? Call now on 01308 302010 or get in touch online by clicking the button below.

When it comes to attaining ISO accreditation quickly, efficiently and professionally, ISO Accelerator really is the smart business choice.
Just take this case study for K M Plant Hire & Groundworks Ltd. and its accreditation journey with ISO Accelerator.
Expedited Process
The Senior Management Team at K M Plant had internally developed their own Quality Management Systems and Environmental Management Systems based around the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 framework, with an aim to eventually formalise these processes with ISO accreditation.
However, with major new client opportunities on the imminent horizon, the decision was made to fast-track this process with a reputable provider.
Following a number of recommendations, including an internal endorsement from one of their staff, management at K M Plant ultimately decided to pursue their intensive ISO accreditation with our team here at ISOA.
What the Client Said
Strategic Operations Manager of K M Plant, Murray Ambler-Shattock, had this to say:
“We had slowly been working towards attainment of ISO9001 and ISO14001 for some months now; however, imminent new major client opportunities meant that we needed to expedite this process.
“Based on favourable referrals, we elected to engage Elizabeth Inns and her team of specialists at ISO Accelerator to assist us with fast-tracking this.
“As a result, we have benefitted from the unwavering, efficient, responsive and highly-valued support and guidance of the ISO Accelerator team.
“We are delighted that ISO Accelerator enabled us to achieve our objective in good time for our planned inclusion in the tendering processes. We highly recommend Lizzy and her team to any organisation seeking to attain ISO Accreditation quickly.”

Case Study: David Turner
David Turner is a management consultant who recently helped a client to achieve ISO 9001:2015 certification with the assistance of ISO Accelerator. He had this to say:
"ISO Accelerator presents a compelling fast-track proposition for getting companies and organisations where they need to be with their ISO compliance – without the body of time, site audits, or the more usual and complex route.
"Before the company I consult committed to this, I must have looked at 20 or 30 alternative options. ISO Accelerator took the time to clarify queries and situations before and during the process.
"Working across time-zones, I was grateful to be able to complete the process in days – using only email from the start. This is one company you can trust and I’ll be sure to send other organisations this way in the future."

Hilcon Ltd is a concrete supply company that provides ready-mixed concrete to sites all over Hampshire.
Recently, the Hilcon team decided that implementing a quality management system and achieving ISO 9001 certification would be a great way to show potential customers just how dedicated they are to providing the best service possible. However, they were a little concerned that getting certified would use up a lot of the company's time and resources.
It was this concern that led them to ISO Accelerator. We specialise in fast-track ISO certification - in fact, if you're a small/medium business based in the UK, we can typically get you certified within just 7 days.
We worked with Hilcon to help them develop an effective, ISO-compliant quality management system; once this was in place, the company completed a Self-Declaration of Conformance to state that their QMS met the requirements of the ISO 9001:2015 standard. We are pleased to say that Hilcon Ltd is now an ISO-certified business!
