ISO consultants for South African businesses

We design, implement and maintain ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 and 27001 systems with your people, so the system runs day to day and stands up to the certification body.

  1. 1
    Gap audit

    We assess your operation against the standard and give you a plain-language picture of what is in place and what is missing.

  2. 2
    Design and implementation

    Procedures, registers and controls designed around how you actually work, with process owners trained to run them.

  3. 3
    Internal audit and management review

    Once the system is in use, we run these with you to confirm it is ready for certification.

  4. 4
    External audit

    The independent, accredited certification body of your choice audits and issues the certificate. Ongoing support afterwards is available if you want it, on iQuotient if you want it live.

We help businesses design, implement, maintain and improve ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management systems. Synercon's role is to help you build a system your people can actually run with confidence before, during and after audit.

You can bring us in for consulting only, for consulting plus iQuotient IMS rollout, or as the strategic layer around an existing internal system. The starting point is always the same: understand the operation, the gap and the most practical path forward.

What we deliver

What Synercon does

We prepare the management system: scope, gap analysis, procedures, registers, internal audits, corrective actions, management review and evidence control. We build or improve the working ISO system, prepare your team and evidence before the external audit, and support maintenance afterwards.

What the certification body does

An independent certification body performs the external certification audit and decides whether certification can be issued. We do not issue ISO certificates. The certification body also runs surveillance and recertification audits, and those audit roles stay separate from our consulting support.

Quality, environmental and safety

Whether you need ISO 9001 quality, ISO 14001 environmental or ISO 45001 health and safety (standalone or integrated), we align the system to the way your operation actually works, not to generic templates, with risk-based procedures, incident workflows and legal compliance monitoring.

Audit readiness & internal audits

From gap assessments to internal audits and close-out actions, we help you prepare for certification-body audits with clarity and confidence, strengthening the system and the evidence they expect to see, while the certification body stays independent.

Frequently asked questions

What does ISO consulting include?
It is practical support to design, implement, maintain and improve a management system aligned with ISO 9001, ISO 14001 or ISO 45001. We help build the system and prepare your team, while an independent certification body performs the certification audit.
How long does ISO implementation take?
A full implementation is usually scoped around the size, complexity and readiness of the business. We can work through a phased plan, focused gap closure, or ongoing support arrangement.
Can we show progress before we are certified?
Yes. From the start of implementation you receive a Consultation in Progress letter, renewed monthly, which you can show a customer or tender adjudicator as evidence that implementation is underway. It does not replace the certificate.
Can Synercon issue ISO certification?
No. Synercon is an ISO consulting and implementation partner. We help prepare, maintain and improve the management system, while an independent certification body performs the certification audit and decides whether certification can be issued.
How much does ISO certification cost?
The total cost depends on scope, sites, employee count, standards, current readiness, consulting effort and the independent certification-body audit. We start by scoping the system and gaps so the right support path is clear before cost is discussed in detail.
How do we get ISO certification in South Africa?
The usual route is to confirm scope, build or improve the management system, train process owners, run internal audits, close gaps, complete management review and then arrange the external audit with an independent certification body. Synercon supports the preparation and improvement work before that independent audit.
Do we need an in-house ISO specialist?
No. Many clients use Synercon as an external consulting partner for guidance, documentation, audits, training and follow-up. Where useful, iQuotient can add digital visibility without requiring a full-time ISO specialist.
What ISO training do you provide?
Training depends on the engagement. Typical support includes ISO awareness, process-owner guidance, internal-auditor upskilling and practical workshops for the people who must run the system.
How do you run a gap analysis?
We work through the standard with your team in about half a day. You get honest verbal feedback on the day and a proposed route forward, your scope, consulting days and price follow in the proposal, and then we guide you through each step of implementation.
What support continues after implementation?
Ongoing support can include retainers, remote guidance, on-site visits, internal audits, management-review preparation, corrective-action follow-up and optional iQuotient IMS support.
Can you combine ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001?
Yes. We regularly structure integrated management systems so ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 work together instead of creating duplicate procedures and separate evidence trails.
Do we need iQuotient IMS to work with you?
No. Synercon can provide consulting on its own. iQuotient is available when you want a live digital system for documents, risks, audits, non-conformances, actions, training and dashboards.
Which industries do you support?
We work across sectors such as mining, manufacturing, construction, FMCG, logistics and professional services, adapting the management system to the way the operation actually works.
How do we start with Synergy Consilium?
Contact us with a short description of what you need. We will help clarify whether consulting only, iQuotient only, or a combined approach is the right next step, usually beginning with a gap audit.
