SECTOR QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions.
Common questions from this sector, answered directly.
Do you audit live project sites?
Yes. For contractors, the management system is only real on a project. Sampling includes active sites where practicable.
Will certification help with prequalification?
Many clients pursue ISO 9001/14001/45001 because buyers and tenders require it. The certificate attests your system, and its scope wording matters, so we keep it precise.
Can multiple branches be covered?
Multi-site certification is possible when the system is centrally controlled and sampling rules are met.
