Manufacturing
Manufacturers must show consistent process control, traceable materials and safe working practices. Buyers and regulators ask for documented evidence that quality and safety are managed, not assumed.
Most often in scope
Industries
A standard reads the same in every industry; the evidence behind it does not. These are the sectors we assess, and the schemes most often in scope when we do.
Sector coverage
Each sector below lists the standards most often in scope when we assess it. Select one to see what its assessment involves; scope and cost are always quoted against your own sites and processes.

Most often in scope
Software organisations are assessed on how they protect customer data, manage service delivery and control change. Enterprise buyers increasingly make certification a condition of contract.

Sector not listed? Management system standards are written to apply across sectors, so the list above is where our enquiries come from rather than a limit on what we assess.
Tell us what you operateWhy it matters
The clauses of the standard are fixed. How an assessor tests them against a cold store, a data centre or a construction site is not.
Sector-appropriate records — batch traceability, change tickets, permits to work — are accepted as the evidence they are, rather than forced into a generic template.
Sites, shifts and processes are sampled according to where failure would actually bite, which is a very different map in logistics than in software.
The scope statement on a certificate names what was actually assessed — the processes, the locations and the shifts — so a reader can tell what it covers without asking you.
Where the same processes carry more than one standard — quality and environment on a production line, security and continuity in a data centre — the visits can be combined rather than repeated.
Tell us what you run and where you run it. We will say which sites and activities an assessment would have to reach, and match the audit team to the work being certified.
