Certification

The Right Certification Route. The Right Accredited Partner. One GAR Interface.
CERTIFICATION SERVICES

Global Alliance Register provides coordinated access to Management System Certification, Product Certification and Personnel Certification through its worldwide network of accredited certification bodies, conformity-assessment organizations and specialist partners.

GAR acts as the client’s certification coordinator and process manager — helping define the appropriate certification route, identify the right accredited partner, coordinate commercial and technical requirements, organize the assessment process and follow the certification journey through to completion.

Our objective is to make certification smarter, faster, more cost-effective and easier to manage without compromising the independence, accreditation or impartiality requirements of the appointed certification body.

Certification Made Smarter.

Instead of requiring clients to independently search certification bodies, compare scopes, verify accreditation, coordinate quotations, manage audit dates and follow technical or administrative issues, GAR provides one coordinated interface for the entire process.

The certification route can be selected according to the required standard or scheme, accreditation, industry sector, geography, market recognition, technical competence, schedule and commercial efficiency.

THE GAR CERTIFICATION ADVANTAGE

Why Clients Use GAR as Their Certification Coordinator

Freedom of Certification Route

GAR is not limited to one certification body’s scope, accreditation, geography or resource availability.

One Point of Contact

Clients work through one GAR interface rather than coordinating multiple certification organizations independently.

Better Commercial Efficiency

Appropriate certification routes can be evaluated while considering total cost, technical suitability and administrative effort.

Faster Coordination

Access to multiple certification partners can provide greater flexibility in auditor, assessor, laboratory and assessment availability.

Global Coverage

GAR can coordinate certification needs across different countries, markets, sites and accreditation requirements.

Technical Guidance

GAR helps clients understand the certification process before unnecessary time or cost is committed.

Integrated TIC Support

Where required, certification can connect with GAR-coordinated testing, inspection, technical evaluation, training and audit services.

Process Management

GAR follows planning, communication, findings, actions and certificate status throughout the certification cycle.

CERTIFICATION ACROSS BORDERS

Global Requirement. Appropriate Accreditation. One Coordination Interface.

Certification requirements often extend across multiple sites, countries or destination markets. GAR can coordinate certification programs designed around the geographical and recognition requirements of the client.

IMPARTIALITY & ACCREDITATION PROTECTED

Coordination Without Compromising Certification Independence

GAR may provide preparation, process coordination and advisory support where permitted, while the formal audit, assessment, evaluation and certification decision remain fully independent and are performed by the appointed accredited certification body in accordance with applicable accreditation, scheme and impartiality requirements.

Where a certification scheme restricts or separates consultancy from certification, responsibilities are structured accordingly.
