Frequently Asked Questions

The revised ISO 9001:2026 standard has now been published. Read the biggest changes here: https://true-solutions.co.uk/iso-9001-2026-now-published/ 

The publication of ISO 9001:2026 marks the start of the official transition period from ISO 9001:2015. The revision is an evolution rather than a complete rebuild, with greater emphasis on quality culture, leadership, ethical behaviour, and opportunities alongside risks.  

Organisations have until 30 September 2029 to transition from ISO 9001:2015 to ISO 9001:2026. Your existing certificate will remain valid during this period, subject to your certification arrangements and continued compliance. ISO 9001:2015 certificates must be transitioned by the end of the transition period. 

Not necessarily. For most organisations, the transition can be completed during a scheduled surveillance or recertification audit. Alternatively, it can be carried out through a separate transition assessment if required. Your certification body will be able to advise on the most appropriate approach for your organisation. 

We recommend reviewing your current Quality Management System against the updated standard and carrying out a gap analysis to identify any changes that may be required. In particular, look at how leadership promotes quality culture and ethical behaviour, how risks and opportunities are identified, and how opportunities for improvement are considered. Starting early allows you to plan updates without unnecessary pressure, and we can help you every step of the way. 

Certification is achieved by:Implementing a management system in line with ISO 9001 requirements. Conducting internal audits and management reviews. Undergoing a third-party certification audit by an accredited body.True Solutions can provide support and expert knowledge on all stages of the process.
Any organisation, regardless of size or sector, can implement ISO 9001 to improve its quality performance and customer satisfaction.The standard is flexible and scalable, allowing each organisation to adapt the Quality Management System (QMS) to its specific processes, risks, and customer requirements.
Certification is valid for three years, with annual surveillance and internal audits to ensure continued compliance with the standard.
Dependent on the complexity and readiness of the organisation, ISO 9001 can typically take 4-6 months to implement. However, we can tailor our timelines to meet your specific needs.
Yes. If you are looking to implement two or more standards together, or already have a standard in place, ISO 9001 can be easily integrated with other ISO management systems, such as ISO 14001, 45001 and 27001.
