Overview

Everything you need for ISO/IEC 17011:2017, in one download

Preparing the documentation is the slowest and most confusing part of getting certified to ISO/IEC 17011:2017. You have to work out what the standard asks for, decide what to write, and turn it into a manual, procedures and records that an auditor will accept. Done from a blank page it takes months, and paying a consultant to do it can cost thousands.

The ISO/IEC 17011:2017 Documentation Toolkit gives you that whole system, already written and ready to edit. It is built by practitioners around the exact structure of the standard, so nothing an auditor expects is missing. You add your company details, adapt anything specific to your operation, and you have a complete, consistent accreditation bodies system that is ready for audit. Every single document you receive is listed and explained further down this page, so you know precisely what you are buying before you spend anything.

What makes this set specific

Built for your real production model, not a generic template

Built for an accreditation body

A complete management system written to ISO/IEC 17011:2017 for a body that assesses and accredits conformity assessment bodies, from impartiality and structure through the assessment process to the accreditation decision.

The assessment process, planned to reported

A dedicated procedure covers assessment planning, conducting and reporting across the accreditation cycle, so you can show how conformity assessment bodies are assessed against their schemes.

The accreditation decision lifecycle

A procedure and a decision sheet cover granting, maintaining, extending or reducing scope, and suspending, withdrawing or refusing accreditation, which is the core of what an accreditation body must control.

Competent, qualified assessors

An assessor competence matrix, qualification and evaluation forms and an approved assessors list, so you can evidence that the people who assess conformity assessment bodies are competent for the scheme.

Impartiality safeguarded and evidenced

An impartiality management procedure and confidentiality and impartiality declarations, so you can demonstrate the independence that is fundamental to an accreditation body.

Editable in Word

Every document is an editable Microsoft Word file you tailor with your own details before your peer evaluation or recognition.

How the kit is built

Three tiers of documents that work together

Every kit follows the same proven structure, so it is easy to understand and easy to implement.

Tier 1

The Manual

The top level document. It answers ISO/IEC 17011:2017 clause by clause and sets out the scope of your system, your policy, the context of your organisation, and how your processes connect. This is the document an auditor opens first.

Tier 2

The Procedures

14 procedures that describe how you actually meet each requirement, from managing documents and training to internal audit and corrective action. They turn the manual into day-to-day practice.

Tier 3

The Forms and Records

28 ready-to-use forms and registers that capture the evidence an auditor wants to see. Sample filled forms are included so you can see exactly how each one is meant to be used.

The full contents

Every document in this toolkit, listed and explained

No hidden contents and no vague claims. Here is the complete document set, with a short description of what each file is for and the clause it helps you meet.

Everything comes in editable Microsoft Word and Excel, with any presentations in PowerPoint. You replace the highlighted placeholders with your own details. No special software is needed.
How long does it take to customise?+
Most organisations tailor the core documents within a few days rather than the weeks or months it takes to write from a blank page. The manual and procedures are already written, so you are editing, not authoring.
How is it delivered?+
After your payment is confirmed, we send your files to you securely within 24 working hours, and usually much sooner. To keep the documents safe, we do not store them on public-facing servers.
Is there a licence limit or a subscription?+

It has been used by manufacturers, food businesses, laboratories, healthcare, IT and service companies.
How is this different from free templates online?+
Free templates are usually incomplete, generic, or out of date, and they leave you guessing what an auditor expects. This kit is a complete, current, clause-mapped set written by practitioners, with every document listed and explained so there are no surprises.
Can I check the toolkit before I buy?+
Yes. You can download a free sample document first to check the quality and writing style, so you can decide with confidence.
