ISO 17020 | Certification in Saudi Arabia

Any entity in Saudi Arabia that wants to undertake inspections for corporations, clients, or government agencies must follow the ISO/IEC 17020:2012 Standard for Conformity Assessment.
The standard applies to all tasks performed by an inspection body, such as checking items, installations, plants, processes, and services to determine conformity and reporting findings. The ISO/IEC 17020:2012 standard can be used as an accreditation requirement or screening document for any institution wanting to do inspections. Inspections necessitate a certain amount of professional judgement and skill.
It is applicable to all inspection stages and inspection bodies of ISO/IEC 17020:2012 type A, B, or C. As testing, certification, and inspections all involve the same elements, they frequently overlap. However, inspections call for a certain level of expertise and professional judgement in order to assess acceptability in relation to general requirements.
ISO 17020 certification enhances the reputation of inspection bodies as top-ranked on the global market and increases their credibility. Nathan ISO Consulting has been a preferred partner for safety, security, and sustainability solutions for over 150 years.
