AGAR BOWLES
Welcome to our recipe book
As with all great recipes, the ingredient list is key. No-one wants a soggy bottom, or a sponge that's too dry.
​
The ISO standards that we implement and maintain work to Annex SL; this is a key ingredient for a successful management system. Think of it as your binding agent; this brings all the elements together that make for an efficient, effective management system, and therefore consistent delivery within your business.
​
There's no prescriptive way to present a management system, and it's easy to fall in to the trap of thinking your entire business needs to change. This isn't the case at all - a management system should provide your business with the framework to manage, and improve performance across quality, environmental and health & safety.
​
We provide a range of services - we think of them as cake, incing and sprinkles, of course. Because, lets be honest, ordering a victoria sponge with a strawberry on top is far more exciting than ordering an ISO 9001 with competent advice!
​
The Cake
The Sponge
Any good cake starts with the sponge. The foundation services of our business are ISO management systems, aka, the sponge. Whether you are looking at ISO 9001 to enhance quality management, ISO 14001 to improve environmental performance, ISO 45001 to make sure you are meeting and exceeding those expectations relating to both the health and the safety of your workforce, or ISO 27001 to ensure data security, we'll have a mixture that's right for you.
​
Think of the single ISO standards as the layers in your sponge - whether one or multiples, the final output should always be as rewarding as intended!
The Icing
Our icing is made with our Health & Safety Competent Advice, and it can be exactly what you need it to be.
We don't do tiered packages - every health & safety service we provide is tailored. Whether a drizzle of glacé, thick buttercream or full fondant moulded around your core services, your health & safety package is mixed exactly as you need it.
​
If you'd rather just have a cheeky go at the squirty cream in the fridge without the sponge, our services can be delivered in conjunction with, or totally independent of ISO services.
​
The Sprinkles
Sprinkles go so well with icing, don't you think?!
​
We've developed our sprinkle selection to perfectly compliment any type of icing. Finishing off the cake are our training courses, Fire Risk Assessments and Fire Door Inspections. In the same way as our icing, these services are delivered to specification, and we can help with management too.
​
If you're not a lover of sponge or icing, and are looking for a sugar rush with a standalone service (don't worry - we won't tell!), training, FRA and FDI services are available in their own pots. ​​​​​​
UKAS Accreditied Certification Bodies
We won't just work with anyone, and we're proud of that. As a business, it's important to us that you are gaining a certificate that will reflect your hard work, benefit your business and stand for more than the paper it's printed on. UKAS accredited certification demonstrates to your stakeholders that you've made a commitment, whether it's to quality management, environmental management, safety management, or all three.
​
That's why we only work with UKAS accredited certification bodies. We won't tell you who to use - that's a decision you make, and we'll work with you to find the certification body that fits you best. It'll always be an informed decision.
​
The easiest way to check if the certification body you would like to use is accredited is to verify their credentials through the UKAS website, but you can rest assured we'll never offer anyone that isn't.
