What is a Registrar / Certifier?
The companies that certify or register companies to the different standards (i.e. ISO 9001, ISO 14001, etc) are known as Certifiers or Registrars since they in fact keep a registry of all the companies that have achieved the certification. Independence is key for these companies, so they act as third parties meaning that they do not represent any interested party (you or your client) except themselves and the accreditation body that they represent.
