Austin Gibbons, one of the founders of Simply explains:
"I've worked in the industry for a few years now as a lead auditor and consultant and it really became clear to me that organizations generally viewed certification assessments as a negative experience. They were often afraid of 'that time of year' and I found that unfortunate.
It also occurred to me that many certification bodies were generally rather dry and had little personal appeal. Customer service and a positive culture are everything for a successful business, but this seemed to be lost on many certification bodies amidst assessments, standards and compliance."
Austin continued:
"Simply Certification was born from a team of us who came together with the same vision, attitude and passion; to provide a certification experience that is not needlessly over-complicated, that our customers enjoy and that is overall a great customer experience.
We are able to provide independent certification that meets many of our customers' requirements. However, we are well on our way to gaining UKAS accreditation for a number of standards, adding even more value for our clients."
Based in the northeast of England, Simply Certification offers a range of products including:
