ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 Specialists

Quality, Health, Safety and Environment (QHSE) sits at the heart of everything we do, and our consultants provide support to clients around the world, to help them to operate safely, compliantly, and efficiently.

We help businesses to develop, implement and maintain ISO-certifiable QHSE management systems. These management systems are not only vital for complying with standards and regulations but are an effective tool for streamlining processes, increasing operational efficiency and potentially unlocking new markets and opportunities.

We work with clients from a vast range of industries, on both one-off and long-term projects. We can support your needs whether you’re a multinational corporation, a medium-sized public body, a small independent company, or anything else in-between. Our personalised advice and consultancy will improve the way your business operates and ensure that your management system benefits your business.

Looking for an ISO Management System?

We work in a way that works for your business. Our flexible approach differs from client to client, dependant on the support required, but we follow these key steps.

  • Understand

    We get to know your business and how it operates.

    Through completing an on-site gap analysis, we review your policies, processes and procedures against relevant ISO standard. We provide you with a comprehensive report and practical advice on how to achieve compliance. We offer a complimentary closing meeting to provide further insight into our findings and how to get started.

  • Plan

    We create a tailored support plan, without 'on the shelf solutions'.

    Following the gap analysis, we work with you to develop a plan so we can offer support in a way that suits you, your time and your budget, while working towards compliance. Our flexible approach means that you can be confident that we are working in a way that compliments your business.

  • Implement

    We get to work as your external ISO partner.

    We work with you to develop and implement your new management system, ensuring compliance with ISO and relevant QHSE requirements. We make sure that you are confident with the solutions we put in place by providing additional training and coaching to you and your team. We offer in-person support across the UK, wherever you are.

  • Maintain

    We help you to keep up the good work. 

    After certification, we can continue to support you with a range of services to help you maintain and improve your management system and ensure ongoing compliance. These options are flexible to meet your needs and can change overtime as and when you require.

Angela McGuire, Romold

It was an excellent experience and the exercises have made me ready for auditing in my organisation.

Mohiyiddeen Salik, BGP Offshore

Really Appreciated

I really appreciated the audit exercises and the simulations of actual audits.

Leonardo Versiani, MMO, Contractor

The process was fantastic!

The process of using the “Perfect Paints” online activity portal as an auditing scenario was fantastic! Given this was an online course, being able to ‘walk around’ a factory to identify issues or engage with ’employees’ was more than just a bit of fun. Add in the role playing of the instructor and it provided a refreshing way to keep delegates engaged in what can be a challenging subject.

I am happy to recommend QSE.

We have been working with QSE Ltd for years. Our aim was to develop our business management system and achieve certification to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, which we were successful in.

QSE continue to support us through internal auditing & staff training tailored to our needs. They provide a friendly, knowledgeable source of information when we need advice and have the flexibility to work around our business.

A Professional and Friendly Company

We have worked with QSE for several years now with regards to general business compliance training and to help our company to prepare ourselves for external audits. They worked closely with our team through the certification for ISO 9001-2015, ISO 14001-2015 and OHSAS 18001-2007.

QSE are a very professional and friendly company who are very easy to work with. I would recommend them to any company who are looking to go through similar processes to ease your work load and to prepare your company in the correct manner.

Not an Off The Shelf Solution!

QSE Ltd have been providing management systems consultancy, carrying out audits and providing our staff with internal auditor training for the last 5 years.

 During this time I have found their employees, Frank & Lynne, to be very knowledgeable, helpful, pro-active and flexible, which suited our requirements which had to be fitted around our busy work schedule. 

The consultancy and training carried out was tailored to our company needs and certainly wasn’t an off the shelf solutions. 

I would highly recommend QSE Ltd to any company looking for the services they provide.
