The TickIT scheme is a guidance document which enables those involved in developing or supplying software, including in-house developers to achieve their quality objectives within the framework of ISO 9001. It also has specific requirements for the certification bodies and their assessors which further enhances the credibility of the approval.

How can TickIT benefit my organisation?

If you are in the software development business you should consider ISO 9001/TickIT certification. It is generally recognised that software development is very different to more traditional development activities. The development processes need to consider the complexity of software and the specialist nature of the development tools and techniques. Poor quality software impacts on efficiency, competitiveness and an ability to retain staff. It therefore makes good business sense to ensure consistently high levels of quality in software.

To this end, those involved in developing or supplying software, need to implement a quality system to meet customers’ quality expectations. Certification to ISO 9001:2000 and TickIT can help your organisation demonstrate that it is committed to continual improvement which in turn should give you improved product and services and improved process efficiency.
