An independent review is a key component of ISO certification processes. ISO (International Organization for Standardization) certifications are awarded to organizations that demonstrate compliance with various international standards in areas such as quality management, environmental management, and information security management.
During the certification process, an independent review is conducted by an accredited third-party certification body to verify that the organization's management system meets the requirements of the relevant ISO standard.
The independent review is typically conducted through a combination of document review, interviews with key personnel, and on-site assessments of the organization's facilities and operations.
The purpose of the independent review is to ensure that the organization has implemented an effective management system that meets the requirements of the ISO standard and that the system is being maintained and continually improved over time.
The independent review helps to ensure the credibility and impartiality of the certification process and provides confidence to stakeholders that the organization's management system is effective and reliable.
