One of the most important questions organization need to answer before start of any ISO 9001 implementation or certification project is “What is the cost of ISO 9001 certification?” or “How much does it cost to get ISO 9001 certification? or “How much do I need to spend for ISO certification?”
Total cost for ISO 9001:2015 QMS implementation and certification involves various price components as below:
- Training the staff
- Gap assessment
- Documentation
- Implementation
- Internal auditor training
- Conduct of internal audit
- Pre-assessment audit
- Certification audit
- Yearly surveillance audits
- Any additional resources / infrastructure if required
- Travel and accommodation of the consultant / trainer / auditor if required
Organizations have an option to either implement the entire management system by themselves by creating an internal project team or hiring an expert ISO Consultant to assist the core team with implementation.
In case an organization wants to implement everything on their own, the process may take more time, might go through several ups and down and might not get desired results in the event of inadequate competence within the team. Implementing a QMS by self may prove to be more costly than hiring services of a consultant.
So, the best option is to hire the services of an expert consulting companies like Sterling International Consulting and realize the true benefits of ISO 9001 implementation and value additions.
