Does it make a difference where a company obtains its ISO registration from?
Selecting a registrar is an important decision. We chose to work with the most respected and trusted registrar in the business; Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Since 1989, UL has issued more than 3,800 ISO 9000 series certificates-in 40 countries and in 135 product categories. Its important to choose an internationally recognized registrar approved by the Registrar Accreditation Board. Without this accreditation, certifications performed by the registrar are of no value. Its important to point out that there are quite a few non-accredited certification bodies that will award ISO certificates without performing a complete full assessment of a companys quality system. Thats an important point when selecting a services provider.
