Business Assurance: What It Is and Why It Should Matter to Your Organization

Business Assurance through Management Systems and Certifications

Did you know the certification of a management system can be critical to the success of a business? Not only does it demonstrates that an organization has an effective quality management system, but that it fully meets its customers’ expectations along with continuously improving its operations.

As a world-leading certification body, ABS Quality Evaluations (ABS QE) works with companies to assure the performance of their business, systems, people and supply chains through management systems certification, verification, assessment and training. Our global network of auditors play an important role in helping organizations obtain the necessary certifications to get products or services to market.

Selecting a Business Assurance Provider

When it comes to selecting a business assurance provider, you'll find several options; however, the real challenge is finding the right provider for you. Sudden changes to your management system can lead to higher error rates in production, defective products, substandard service and ultimately dissatisfied customers. To avoid this, you want to ensure that your business assurance provider will work alongside you as a partner, providing the best expertise and training possible for the industries that you serve.

The Benefits of ISO Certifications

Today, International Organization for Standardization (ISO) certification is synonymous with quality. There are numerous benefits obtained through ISO certification, including the technological, economic and social advantages as a result of standardization. You can also improve the quality of your processes and products, better understand your business, enhance the consistency of your operations, reduce waste and save money and gain international recognition.

A company or business that has adequate certification can effectively develop a strong, quality culture.

It is important to note that obtaining ISO certification simply to check boxes or ease market pressure is not likely to benefit your organization to the fullest. In fact, it can make the process a burden. Focusing on your long-term company goals and using a good management system to assist you will result in significant perks for your organization, as noted above.

Top ISO Certifications to Consider

Several different ISO standards can guide your business. While some are industry-specific, several of the most popular standards remain broad and can be implemented into an organization for business excellence, regardless of the sector. Consider these top ISO certifications to ensure the high standards of your operations:
