Our ISO 9001 Services
ISO 9001 Documentation
Preparing all the required ISO 9001 documents can be an intimidating feat. The ISO 9001 standard is very open to interpretation when it comes to meeting its documentation requirements. Therefore, organizations seeking to implement the ISO 9001 standard can find themselves struggling early on in their ISO journey. The truth of the matter is, since no two companies are the same, ISO standards are intentionally left vague so that each organization prepares documents, forms, policies, and procedures that best fit their unique businesses.
At H.A. Consultancies, we acknowledge the differences between companies and also understand what the standards mean to achieve through their various clauses. We lean on years of experience in order to prepare tailored ISO 9001 documents that are guaranteed to comply with all the clauses of the ISO 9001 standard for any type of organization.

ISO 9001 Certification Body Management Services
As indicated by its name, H.A. Consultancies is an ISO consultancy firm and thus cannot provide ISO 9001 certification services to its clients as that is deemed to be a conflict of interest. H.A. can however provide consultation services to its clients as to which certification body to choose and can also manage the interaction with the certification body on behalf of the client. Certification bodies follow rigid procedures which entail filling out various detailed forms for the simplest of requests such as obtaining a quotation for their services or booking an audit. Building on the years of experience in the field, H.A. Consultancies was able to develop a strong network with numerous certification bodies both locally and abroad. This enables H.A. to advise its clients on which certification body to opt for based on their industry sector, their client’s locations, and the standard they are seeking to get certified on. This saves our clients the hassle of running after certification bodies and ensures them that they will get a certificate that is accredited and internationally recognized, not just a piece of paper.
