Certification • Inspection • Training
Certification you can check, from people you can trust.
BVS audits management systems against ISO standards with independent auditors, a separate technical review and a separate certification decision. Every certificate we issue can be checked online by its number.
What we do
Management-system certification
ISO 9001 quality and ISO 14001 environmental management systems, with ISO 45001 and ISO 22000 to follow.
Certification services →Inspection
Third-party inspection under ISO/IEC 17020 is a planned future service. It is not offered today.
About inspection →BVS Academy
Open courses on standards and auditing. Training is kept separate from certification and never affects an audit outcome.

Why BVS
Built so the result can be relied on
Clients, customers and regulators rely on certificates only when the process behind them is sound. BVS was designed around that process first, and the brand second.
Our four commitments →Independent
We do not consult. Auditors, reviewers and decision makers are different people.
Competent
Every auditor is authorised by standard and industry sector on evidence, not course attendance.
Transparent
Fees follow audit days set by published rules. Nothing depends on the outcome.
Verifiable
Every certificate carries a number and QR code linked to its current status.
