I lead the business development for Ocean Certification, who are a certification body that assesses organisations across a range of standards including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, OHSAS 18001, PAS2030.As we are an UKAS accredited organisation, our clients are assured that their certifications are recognised to be impartial and that they meet the high standards set out by UKAS; which is becoming a must on various tender opportunities.We provide a friendly service and work with businesses who are both new to certification and who are looking to transfer to another certification body.It is proven that having formal management systems that are certified has a huge range of benefits, which includes sales and business performance, providing organisations great value in terms of a competitive edge. The cost of implementing a management system and gaining certification pays itself back rather quickly due to inefficiencies being spotted and rectified and an increase in sales opportunities, so if you are a business that wants to grow - then implementing the right systems are a must!
