UKICM check out the website and phone them. they will give you the details

[ronnie paton]

just been looking at website you dont have to use ISO accredited companies do you?

[PCNW]

on the PQQs we are asked if we use iso accredited companies if we tick no we reduce the chances of being success but increase the likelyhood of problems on the job.its not a requirement but its more professional

[ronnie paton]

so how did you go about letting them visit you at your business premisis??

and how did you go about showing processes for a company that doesnt yet exsist??

was wondering how it would look at visiting my home which is my business premisis would look at bit un proffesional i think?

[PCNW]

they said all the requirements are that you meet the standard. You need a job to show what procedures you have. You can become accredited off one job which we will make up actually ukicm advised us to manufacture a job then they get you upto the stadard required to get the certificate

Make the job up the show what procedures you think you would have used then they work with you at no extra costs

[ronnie paton]

but thays seems fake considering what it stands for no dis respect but they are basically saying any one can get it

[PCNW]

thats how they operate and as long as they help us gain the certificate and operate professionally and they audit us every year then ive got no problem - you need to show procedures for them to improve upon so thats how i see it.
There job really is to get you to the standard so if your completly rubbish they will get you to that standard so effectively unless we get to that standard we cant operate on the contracts we are looking at.

You can look at it as a training course to get you to the highest professional standard

[PCNW]

If we dont reach the standard we wont get the certificate
If anyone tries to get it if they arent good enough same applies
