Implementation & certification

Support with implementation and certification.

Are you working towards ISO 27001, NEN 7510 or other standards and customer-specific requirements? We translate the requirements into practical controls, documents and evidence. Together, we establish a working management system and support you through the audit. This helps you demonstrate compliance and prepare for certification.

Our own ISMS is also certified to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 by EIK Certificering B.V. View our certificate, scope and validity. Our own certification does not automatically apply to the organisations we support.

Three ways to work together

Choose how much you do yourselves.

We prefer to use the Compliance Tool as the central foundation. It keeps standards, controls, tasks and evidence in one place, helping us work efficiently together. If another approach suits you better, we agree this in advance.

Independently

Your organisation sets everything up itself.

You assess requirements, tailor documents to your organisation, implement controls and gather evidence. The Compliance Tool provides the content and organisational foundation.

Suitable when
You have enough expertise and project time
Your involvement
High
Our role
Software & support
Comprehensive support

We take on almost all implementation work.

We coordinate the project and handle as much of the analysis, configuration, documentation, checks and audit preparation as possible. You provide information, validate what happens in practice and make formal decisions.

Suitable when
Time or specialist expertise is limited
Your involvement
Information, validation and decisions
Our role
Coordination and almost all implementation

Implementation support does not itself provide a certificate. If you choose accredited certification, a certification body accredited for that activity carries out the assessment and makes the certification decision. For ISO 27001, DCA also offers a separate route to non-accredited certification that you can discuss with us. Agree in advance what your customer accepts and how the scope, roles and impartiality arrangements will be recorded.

What always remains with you

Even when we carry out almost everything, management and process owners remain responsible for information, validation, risk appetite and formal decisions. We advise, coordinate and implement.

The implementation project

From initial assessment to certification.

Step 1

Initial assessment & scope

Assess objectives, scope and the existing arrangements. Record who carries out each action and what information is needed.

Outcome: a realistic plan
Step 2

Configuration & implementation

Develop the risk assessment, treatment plan, policies and responsibilities. Gather evidence during implementation.

Outcome: a working system
Step 3

Internal assessment

Prepare the internal audit and management review, safeguard the assessment's objectivity and follow up findings.

Outcome: insight into readiness and improvements
Step 4

External audit & ongoing management

Arrange a separate assessment for the chosen certification route. Maintain checks and improvement actions afterwards. Guidance and internal assessment are not a certification decision.

Outcome: assessed records and agreed ongoing management
What determines the level of involvement?

Our support builds on what is already in place.

An organisation with current processes, usable policies and available internal owners needs a different project from one starting from scratch or facing a fixed audit deadline.

The starting price covers guidance. The Compliance Tool, internal hours, improvement measures and external certification are separate parts of your budget. An internal audit is agreed separately. Total involvement depends on the scope and division of work.
