Certification Body Coordination

Problem: Poor coordination with the certification body-unclear scopes, rushed scheduling, or misaligned expectations-can lead to inefficient audits, added cost, and unnecessary findings.

Solution: Our Certification Body Coordination service acts as your experienced liaison throughout the engagement. We help select an appropriate body if needed, confirm scopes and sites, align audit plans with your operations calendar, and ensure required documents are submitted correctly. During the process, we manage clarifications, logistics, and follow-up, so your team can focus on running the business and engaging with auditors. The outcome is a more focused, predictable certification journey with fewer administrative missteps.

* Package pricing is fixed-scope. Changes to scope, additional sites, or additional standards are quoted separately.

* Hourly equivalent row reflects the effective rate if the same work were billed on a T&M basis — packages typically represent 15–25% savings vs. hourly.

* All packages include: project kickoff, stakeholder briefing, deliverable review cycles, and 30-day post-delivery support.
