    Timeline and cost factors

    Typical timeline: 4–8 months for implementation and certification. Cost depends on scope, organization size, number of locations and systems, current maturity and how much hands-on implementation support you need. Any certification, assessment or audit body fees are separate and set by that body.

    Questions buyers ask

    Aspects are the parts of your activities, products or services that interact with the environment, such as emissions or waste. You assess which are significant and control them.

    No. It requires you to identify and evaluate compliance with obligations, but certification is not a legal compliance certificate.

    An accredited certification body issues it after audit. We provide consulting and preparation support.

    Yes. The shared structure allows one integrated management system for quality, environment and safety.

    Objectives should be measurable and linked to significant aspects and obligations. We help you choose objectives that you can track.
