Overview

Everything you need for ISO/IEC 17065:2012, in one download

Preparing the documentation is the slowest and most confusing part of getting certified to ISO/IEC 17065:2012. 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 17065:2012 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 product certification 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 a product certification body

A complete management system written to ISO/IEC 17065:2012 for a body that certifies products, processes or services, from impartiality and structure through the certification process to the management system.

The certification decision lifecycle

A dedicated procedure covers granting, maintaining, extending or reducing scope, and suspending, withdrawing or refusing certification, which is the core of what an ISO 17065 body must control.

Evaluation and evaluator competence

An evaluation procedure plus evaluator qualification, competence matrix and evaluation forms, so you can show the people who evaluate products are competent and their work is controlled.

Impartiality safeguarded and evidenced

An impartiality management procedure, a threats-to-impartiality assessment, and confidentiality and impartiality declarations, so you can demonstrate the independence an assessor checks first.

Certification mark and terms of certification

A procedure for the correct use of the certification logo and accreditation symbol, and a terms and conditions of certification document that binds your certified clients.

Editable in Word

Every document is an editable Microsoft Word file you tailor with your own details before assessment.

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 17065:2012 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

15 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

31 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.

Yes. You can download a free sample document first to check the quality and writing style, so you can decide with confidence.
