ACPO relies on facts, not promises.
An approach tailored to companies that need to demonstrate their seriousness
ACPO primarily intervenes in sectors where certification is a lever for credibility and structuring.
Choosing a certification body depends on several criteria: its accreditation, its experience in your sector, the quality of its auditors, the transparency of its process, and its ability to provide value beyond the certificate itself. ACPO helps you assess the right level of recognition for your situation.
The ISO certification cycle typically lasts 3 years, including an initial audit, annual surveillance audits, and a renewal audit. The preparation time varies depending on the maturity of your management system: from a few weeks to several months.
Yes, it is perfectly possible to transfer your certification to another organization. ACPO will support you through this transition smoothly, resuming your certification cycle without interruption.
Preparing for an ISO audit requires a thorough understanding of your management system, up-to-date documentation, internal audits, and team preparation. ACPO offers self-assessment tools to facilitate this process.
ISO 9001 concerns quality management. ISO 14001 focuses on environmental management. ISO 45001 covers occupational health and safety. These standards are complementary and can be certified separately or as a single unit.
Construction companies in Switzerland most often adopt ISO 9001 for quality, ISO 14001 for environmental management, and ISO 45001 for occupational health and safety. The choice depends on your size, contractual obligations, and strategic objectives.
Engineering firms generally opt for ISO 9001, which structures processes, strengthens credibility with clients, and promotes continuous improvement. ISO 14001 can be added depending on the specific requirements of the project.
The level of recognition depends on your markets, your customers, and your regulatory requirements. ACPO helps you clarify whether an accredited certification, a certification under specific accreditation, or a regional label is most relevant to your context.
