We build management systems. We run our own.
Synergy Consilium (trading as SynerCon) is a Gauteng-based team of Business Management Specialists who build ISO systems your people can actually run, and keep running long after the certificate.
Specialists who build systems that work
Our team comprises Business Management Specialists with extensive experience developing, implementing and maintaining customised management systems across South African industry: engineering, manufacturing, mining supply, security and professional services.
We're not a certification body, and that's by design. We build, prepare, maintain and improve your management system; an independent, accredited certification body performs the audit and issues the certificate. Keeping those roles separate is exactly what makes your certificate respected by the customers and tenders that rely on it.
Why our clients stay
Clients keep working with us because the systems we build keep working for them. We design around your real operation and the accredited route, so your certificate is recognised where it matters, and the system still earns its keep years later, not only on audit day. You'll always get our honest, practical advice, and that candour is part of why the work lasts.
We operate our own management system. We live the discipline we teach, every day, in our own business.
A partner who stays
The certificate is a milestone, not the finish line. Our engagements run on a monthly rhythm of internal audits, corrective actions, management review and continual improvement, so your system is genuinely ready for every surveillance audit, never reassembled in a panic the week before. Where it helps, our iQuotient platform keeps the whole system live and audit-ready between visits.
The depth behind the work.
Real management-system work, built and maintained across South African industry since 2011.
A proven six-phase process.
The same disciplined path on every engagement, from first gap audit to a system that stays ready, year after year. Follow it through.
Plan
We understand your context, scope and real risks, then map the route to certification.
Design
We design the management system around how your operation actually runs, not a template.
Develop
We build the documented procedures, registers and controls your team will genuinely use.
Implement
We roll it out, train your people and get the evidence in place across the business.
Evaluate
Internal audits, corrective actions and management review, before the certification audit.
Maintain
We keep it audit-ready every surveillance cycle, with the iQuotient platform where it helps.
The people who build your system.
A full-time team of consultants, auditors and developers, led by the founder. You meet the people on your engagement on the first call.
I care most about building systems people can actually use. When the structure is clear and the follow-through works, the business feels the difference long after the certificate arrives.
Full-time, on our payroll
Every consultant and auditor on your engagement is a full-time member of the Synergy Consilium team, not a contractor assembled for the project. The people who build your system are the people who maintain it.
Competent, and kept that way
Every consultant and auditor holds the qualifications and training for the standards they work on, and we keep it that way. Competence requirements are defined for each role, the evidence is kept and reviewed, and auditors only audit what they are competent to audit, in line with ISO 19011 guidance. We work strictly to the accredited certification route, so the system we build is ready for an accredited body's auditor, not just for ours. The people on your engagement are matched to it, current in their competence, and accountable to you for the result.
Experience where you work
Systems designed, implemented and maintained since 2011 across engineering, manufacturing, mining, construction, logistics, food and FMCG, education and professional services: 327 systems and counting, each built around how that business actually runs.
Continuity, not rotation
Your lead consultant stays with you from the gap assessment through certification and the surveillance cycles after it. Internal audits are carried out by a colleague independent of the work, as the standards require.
Software built in-house
Our developers build and support the iQuotient platform inside the consultancy, so the software follows the consulting method rather than the other way round, and the people who configure it for you have built management systems themselves.
Let's see where you really stand.
An obligation-free consultation gets you the honest picture, and the realistic path to an accredited certificate.
