Supporting organizations towards ISO certifications
The ISOPEX C&P firm provides ISO certification support services structured in accordance with Project Management Office (PMO) best practices and the standards of the Project Management Institute. This approach ensures rigorous, controlled, and results-driven management of projects aimed at achieving compliance with international standards (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 22000, etc.).
The support is delivered as a fully managed project, with clearly defined milestones, formalised deliverables, and performance indicators, organised around the following key phases:
Initiation: project scoping, stakeholder identification, definition of objectives, and gap analysis;
Planning: development of the project management plan (scope, schedule, cost, risks, communications) and compliance roadmap;
Execution: design and deployment of the management system (processes, procedures, tools), operational support, and staff training;
Monitoring and Controlling: performance tracking, risk management, handling of nonconformities, and regular reporting to management;
Closing: internal audit, certification audit readiness, support through to certification, and lessons learned capitalisation.
The PMO/PMI approach adopted by ISOPEX C&P enables:
Clear governance of the certification project;
Effective control of timelines and resources;
Reduced risk of failure during the certification audit;
Strategic alignment with organisational objectives.
With proven sector expertise, the firm applies a pragmatic, participative, and performance-oriented approach, with a strong emphasis on knowledge transfer and the sustainability of the management system.
The ultimate objective is not only to achieve ISO certification, but also to ensure the lasting integration of best management practices in support of overall organisational performance.
Auditing organizations (regulatory compliance, hazards, environmental and social impact, etc.)
The firm provides a comprehensive organisational audit service aimed at assessing compliance with standards, identifying hazards and risks, and evaluating the environmental and social impacts of activities. This service supports effective risk control, continuous improvement, and alignment with international frameworks (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, etc.).
The approach is structured around three key phases: Preparation – Execution – Reporting, ensuring methodological rigour, traceability, and relevance of findings.

Preparation of audit tools (checklists, assessment grids)
Opening meeting with relevant stakeholders
2. Execution Phase
This phase covers the on-site operational audit activities:
Conducting interviews with key personnel
On-site observations of activities, facilities, and practices
Verification of objective evidence of compliance
Assessment of gaps, nonconformities, hazardous situations, and identified impacts
Analysis of root causes (technical, organisational, human factors)
Immediate feedback and, where relevant, interim closing discussions
3. Reporting Phase
This phase formalises the results and supports decision-making:
Preparation of a structured audit report (findings, gaps, levels of criticality)
Prioritisation of risks and environmental and social impacts
Development of practical recommendations and action plans
Presentation of conclusions to management (closing meeting)
Optional support for monitoring corrective actions
Added Value of the Service
