ISO Consultants in Preston

We help Preston and Lancashire SMEs build ISO systems that work on the shop floor. Based in Manchester, we’re up the M61 regularly, working with manufacturers, engineering firms and warehouses across the North West.

What we do in Preston

Gap analysis and compliance reviews. ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 implementation, as a single standard or one integrated system. Internal audits and pre-certification support. Competent person health & safety support. Training for managers and supervisors.

Who it’s for

Typically businesses with 20 to 250 employees, where quality or safety has outgrown what one person can manage alongside their day job. If customers are asking for ISO 9001, your insurance renewal is raising questions, or you’re going for 45001, that’s where we come in.

How we work

Project-based with a fixed scope, retained monthly support, or ad-hoc days when you need an experienced pair of eyes. We come to you. Most clients see us on site, not on Teams.

Our two-year culture programme at The Rakem Group won Best Health & Safety in Manufacturing at the SHE Awards 2024.

Common questions

Do you cover the rest of Lancashire? Yes. Preston is the anchor, and we work across Chorley, Leyland, Blackburn and the surrounding towns.

How long does ISO 9001 take? For most SMEs, three to nine months from gap analysis to certification, depending on where you’re starting from.

Can we do it ourselves? You can. A consultant makes sense when nobody in the business has the time, or nobody wants to own the system internally.
