IMS is accredited by UKAS (registration number 078) for certification of ISO9000 compliant management systems under the TickIT Scheme.

The TickIT Scheme is in addition to ISO 9000 for IT companies, and was set up in response to customer demand for a better response by certification bodies to the special needs of IT.

The most notable aspects of the TickIT Scheme are:

¨ TickIT auditors have actual experience of IT development, and are familiar with current IT

¨ There are additional guidelines for use by TickIT auditors when carrying out assessments

There are no extra requirements, the assessment standard is ISO 9001/9002. The guidelines interpret the requirements of ISO 9001/9002 in IT terms.

A TickIT audit should take no longer than a non-TickIT audit. The difference is that you are assured of having an auditor with experience in the field, thus bringing added value.
