Tidal Control incident
What is ISO 9001 and when should you start certification?
Resolved on July 7, 2026.
ISO 9001 is the international standard for quality management systems, requiring organisations to document and prove their processes consistently deliver what customers expect. Certification is not legally required but is effectively mandatory for public tenders, enterprise supplier lists, and sectors such as construction, manufacturing, and IT services. For an SME with up to 25 employees, first-year costs run between 9,000 and 30,000 euros. ISO 9001:2026 was published on 16 September 2026; the changes are evolutionary and existing 2015 certificates remain valid during a transition period.
