• What the ISO/IEC 27001 doesn’t cover: ISO 27001 is a globally recognized framework designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of an organization’s information assets. Rather than focusing solely on IT security, it mandates a Risk Management approach where a business identifies its specific data threats and implements a tailored "Information Security Management System" (ISMS) to mitigate them.
• ISO 28000:2022 certification: No
• ISO 9001 certification: Yes
• Who accredited the ISO 9001 certification: BSI
• ISO 9001 accreditation date: Sunday 9 March 2025
• What the ISO 9001 doesn’t cover: ISO 9001 is the international standard for Quality Management Systems (QMS), focusing on the principle that consistent processes lead to consistent results. For an IT reseller, it is less about the technical "specs" of the gear and more about the reliability of the customer experience.; It mandates a "Plan-Do-Check-Act" (PDCA) cycle, requiring the business to document how it handles everything from sales inquiries and order fulfillment to customer complaints and supplier vetting. By shifting the focus from "fixing mistakes" to preventing them through continuous improvement, ISO 9001 ensures that a client receives the same high level of service every time they order. It serves as a structural guarantee that the business is managed through data-driven decisions and a strong commitment to customer satisfaction, rather than luck or ad-hoc effort.
