TBH GmbH has extended its certification according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 until 2029. For us, this underscores our commitment to clear processes, reliable procedures, and a systematically structured quality management system. For our customers and partners, the extended certification provides up-to-date and verifiable proof that TÜV SÜD Management Service GmbH has re-audited our quality management system.
What does DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 actually say?
ISO 9001 defines the requirements for a quality management system. It describes how a company systematically organizes, monitors, and develops quality. It is not about the certification of a single product, but about the processes and structures within the company. ISO itself also states that the standard creates a framework for reliability, clarity, and continuous improvement without prescribing in detail how a company must operate. (iso.org)
Who audits ISO 9001 certification?
ISO itself does not issue certificates. This task is performed by external certification bodies. In the case of TBH, this is done by TÜV SÜD Management Service. TÜV SÜD lists both the certification of management systems and the associated DAkkS accreditations on its official website. DAkkS, the German Accreditation Body, acts as the national accreditation authority in Germany and assesses the competence of such bodies. (iso.org, tuvsud.com)
Why does ISO 9001 certification have to be renewed regularly?
Quality management is not a one-time project. Companies continue to develop processes, requirements change, and evidence must remain up to date. This is precisely why certifications work with terms and recurring audits. ISO explicitly describes certification as external evidence that an organization meets the requirements of ISO 9001. This proof only retains its value if companies renew it regularly, thereby demonstrating that their quality management system continues to meet the requirements. (ISO 9001 explained)
