ISO 9001 certification helps businesses to improve the quality and efficiency of their work.
If you run a small or medium-sized business, you may have heard of ISO 9001 certification without being entirely sure what the point of it is. Is it just another badge? More paperwork? Something only large companies need?
The short answer is no. ISO 9001 is designed to help organisations work better, deliver more consistent results and achieve greater customer satisfaction.
With a new ISO 9001 revision due later in 2026, many certified organisations are asking the same question: what's changing, and what do we need to do about it?
The current version of ISO 9001 (known as ISO 9001:2015) is due to be replaced very soon. To be more specific, the revised standard is expected to be published in September of this year. While the final details are yet to be confirmed, there is already enough information available to give us a rough idea of what the ISO 9001 revision is likely to look like.
As you may remember, ISO Accelerator was the match sponsor for the Sussex Girls' Under-16s Challenge Cup Final earlier in 2025. Bognor Regis Town won 4-1 on the day, and very excitingly, one of those four Bognor goals has now been nominated for 'Goal of the Season'!
Lexie Peattie's smashing strike is the second goal featured in the video below. We want to support the Bognor girls in any way we can, so if you're reading this, we strongly encourage you to visit sussexfa.com and cast your vote for Goal 2 - Lexie Peattie!
Obtaining ISO 9001 certification for your company used to be a rather long and arduous journey.
On-site audits, a multi-stage assessment process, meetings upon meetings, paperwork upon paperwork...it's hard to make time for all of that, especially when you've already got the day-to-day running of your business to worry about.
So if you've decided that ISO 9001 isn't a priority for your organisation, that's understandable. Getting certified, and maintaining that certification once you've got it, is costly and time-consuming.
Or rather it was costly and time-consuming until ISO Accelerator came along.
