Certification Readiness.
Customers can, and often do, require more objective assurances of quality and security than a contract clause.
Detail
Engagements are staffed with auditors and audit specialists who have done the job in-house, several with more than twenty years of experience.
Although organizational assurances of quality and security may be verbally asserted, or even documented within legally binding trade agreements (such as contracts and service level agreements), customers can, and often do, require more objective assurances of quality and security.
Organizations that can demonstrate their adherence to recognized global and/or industry protection standards, will benefit both with increased revenues and reduced costs to operations. Independent, approved certifiers evaluate an organization’s quality/security program compliance against formally documented, national/international standards.
Needling Worldwide staff provides organizations expert advice and hands-on assistance in preparing for, and building, ISO 9001, ISO 20000, ISO 22301, ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, ISO 27701, SOC 1 and 2 Type 1 and 2, NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171, TISAX, HIPAA, CMMC, and FFIEC compliant information system security programs, as well as other nationally known certifications/compliance standards — thereby affording those organizations more competitive positions not only in search of new customers, but also with the continued support of current customers.
