Every standard we implement

Grouped by what the certificate is actually for. Standards with a page take you to the process, the documentation list and the questions clients ask about that standard. The rest are quoted on enquiry.

Start from the requirement

What you have been asked for, and what actually satisfies it

Most enquiries start with a sentence from a customer rather than a standard number. These are the ones we hear most often in Pakistan.

What the buyer, tender or regulator says
What satisfies it
"Send us your quality certificate before we open the account."
ISO 9001The general quality management baseline, and the one most commercial and tender requirements mean by default.
"We only buy from suppliers on a GFSI benchmarked scheme."
FSSC 22000 or BRCGSISO 22000 alone does not clear a GFSI requirement. FSSC 22000 adds the prerequisite programmes that do.
"Show us your food safety controls before the plant visit."
HACCP, then ISO 22000HACCP is the hazard control method. ISO 22000 wraps a full management system around it.
"Our client needs assurance that their data is secure with you."
ISO 27001Information security management. The usual answer to a security questionnaire from an overseas client.
"The buyer's social audit asked about worker safety."
ISO 45001Occupational health and safety, and the evidence a site auditor will ask to see on the floor.
"We need to report on environmental impact for the group."
ISO 14001Now on the 2026 edition, with the transition running to April 2029. Worth starting on the new edition.
"We are exporting to the Gulf and need HALAL status."
HALAL certificationRecognition under GSO, MUIS and JAKIM, depending on the destination market.
How certification works

Five stages, and you know the scope before stage three

The same route on every standard. Nothing gets written until we have seen how the operation actually runs.

Stage one

Understand the business

How you operate, which market you sell into, and exactly what is being asked of you. A conversation, not a form.

Stage two

Gap analysis

A clause by clause review of what exists against what the standard requires, so the scope is known up front.

Stage three

Documentation

Manuals, procedures and records built around your operations, not a template pack handed to your team.

Stage four

Internal audit

We audit it ourselves, raise the findings and close them, so the certification body is not the first to look hard.

Stage five

Certification audit

We prepare your team, attend the audit, and work through findings until the certificate is issued.

How long it takes

Most small and medium businesses in Pakistan complete implementation in about 6 to 12 weeks. The certification body audit is scheduled separately once the system is running and the internal audit is closed out.

What it costs

Cost depends on your organisation's size, number of locations and the complexity of your operations. Axora Global offers fixed price consultancy packages and arranges the certification body audit separately. Book a free consultation for an exact quote.

ISO training

Certify the organisation, then qualify the people who run it

Every course is 40 CPD hours across five modules with the examination fee included, delivered live online, on site in the classroom, or at your own pace. The certificate is internationally recognised and can be verified independently.

PKR 70,000 to 90,000, examination fee included, approximately USD 250 to 320. New batches run throughout the year. Delegates already booked can use the participants portal.

Common questions

What clients ask before they start

How long does certification take?

Most small and medium businesses in Pakistan complete implementation in about 6 to 12 weeks. The certification body audit is booked separately once the system is running and the internal audit is closed out. Anyone quoting a timeline without looking at your operation is guessing.

How much does it cost?

The cost depends on your organisation's size, number of locations and the complexity of your operations. Axora Global offers fixed price consultancy packages and arranges the certification body audit separately. Book a free consultation for an exact quote.

Which standard do we actually need?

Usually the one your customer, retailer or regulator is asking for. The table above covers the requests we hear most often. If yours is not there, send us the wording you were given and we will tell you which certificate satisfies it, and which ones will not.

Does Axora Global issue the certificate?

No, and that separation is the point. We implement the management system and prepare you for audit. The certificate is issued by the certification body, whose audit we arrange separately. A consultant who also issues the certificate is not giving you something a buyer will trust.

What is the difference between your consultancy and your training?

Consultancy certifies the organisation. Training certifies the person. A lead auditor or lead implementer qualification belongs to the individual who earns it and travels with them, which is why many clients do both: the company gets the certificate, and the people running the system get qualified to keep it.

Can a certificate issued through Axora be verified?

Yes. Our verification page confirms whether a certificate is genuine and currently valid, so your customers can check it themselves rather than taking a PDF on trust. Training certificates are internationally recognised and independently verifiable in the same way.

Do you work outside Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad?

Yes. Axora Global supports clients across Pakistan. The three city pages exist because those are the markets people search for most, not because the work stops there.

We are already certified. Can you take over the system?

Yes. Standards get revised and certificates get surveilled, and a system that was written once and filed away tends to show it at the next audit. We pick up existing systems, close the gaps and handle transitions such as the ISO 14001 and FSSC 22000 revisions.
