Who can use TickIT?

If you are involved in developing or supplying software, TickIT will let you achieve your quality objectives within the framework of ISO 9001, the internationally recognised quality management system (QMS) standard. It also has specific requirements for the certification bodies and their assessors which improve the credibility of ISO 9001 certification in the software development industry.

How can LRQA help?

We offer assessment against ISO 9001 and TickIT.

We can provide support and guidance for our clients looking to start on the route to a certified management system.

We offer gap analysis, preliminary assessments and a number of training courses to prepare you for certification.

Regular surveillance visits and certificate renewal visits every three years make sure that your QMS continues to meet the requirements of the standard.
