Our main focuses are system and product certification, training and personal certification. We are accredited by Akkreditierung Austria for system, product as well as personal certification and have many international registrations and accreditations. Furthermore, we present the Austrian Excellence Award together with the Federal Ministry of Labour and Economy and award the Austria Quality Seal. Additionally, we organize several forums and conferences and have issued numerous publications. We participate actively in standardization bodies and international networks such as EOQ, IQNet and EFQM

We adjust the offer to our customers’ needs and support them in focusing on long-term goals.

System and Product certification, verification and validation.

As an independent certification body we conduct conformity assessments on the basis of international standards and regulations. Thus we assess and confirm that relevant requirements (such as those of ISO 9001, the quality management standard) are being adhered to. We predominantly certify systems, products and services as well as persons in line with the accreditation regulations of Akkreditierung Austria.

From the beginning, qualityaustria audit design has been focused on creating value for our customers.

  • Customer expectations significantly influence audit objectives and benefits.
  • Auditor competence is of extreme importance.
  • Performance and effect of the audited Integrated Management System is crucial.
  • People meet each other during an audit.

Training and certification of persons.

With our webinars, online courses and information events we constantly aim to maximize value for our customers by staying on top of latest developments.

qualityaustria certificates have an outstanding reputation and are objective proof of competence due to their internationally accepted processes of examination, assessment and re-certification based on the EN ISO/IEC 17024 standard. We offer more than 50 certification programmes, most of them are nationally accredited.
