The quality problems you don't talk about
Most organizations face the same challenges. The difference is how you choose to solve them.
Spreadsheet Chaos
Excel files everywhere. No one knows which version is valid. Mistakes repeat because the right information isn't accessible.
"We've Always Done It This Way"
Processes that live in people's heads. New employees learn through trial-and-error. Knowledge disappears when people leave.
Same Mistakes Year After Year
The same problems keep appearing. Corrective actions that never get implemented. Rework costs just keep growing.
Documentation Nobody Uses
Hundreds of pages written for certification's sake. Nobody uses them in daily work. Reality and documentation live parallel lives.
Not another document repository
AmpliFlow is a living quality system that people actually use.

From chaos to certificate
ISO 9001 isn't about "just documenting". It's about building a system that actually works - and that takes time. Here's why.
Gap Analysis & Current State
Mapping existing processes, interviewing key people, and identifying gaps against ISO 9001. You get a clear picture of what already works and what needs to be built.
Understanding how work is actually done (not how the policy says) requires time with the right people.
2-3 weeks
Process Design & Buy-in
Define and document core processes together with the people who do the work. Ensure processes are practically feasible - not just theoretically correct.
Processes created without employee input don't get followed. Buy-in takes time but saves years of resistance.
4-6 weeks
Implementation & Training
Roll out processes across the organization. Train employees on new ways of working and tools. Start collecting data on goals and deviations.
Behavior change requires repetition. You need at least 2-3 months of operation for the system to take hold and deliver results.
2-3 months
Internal Audit & Adjustment
Conduct internal audit of the entire system. Identify gaps and implement corrective actions while you have time to do it properly.
Internal audits always reveal things you missed. Actions must be implemented and verified.
3-4 weeks
Management Review
Leadership reviews system performance, goals, and improvement opportunities. An ISO 9001 requirement that must be completed before certification.
Requires data to be collected and analyzed. Leadership needs to actually understand and make decisions - not just sign off.
1-2 weeks
Certification Audit
External auditor reviews your system in two stages: first documentation (Stage 1), then implementation (Stage 2). With proper preparation, this goes smoothly.
Auditors are often booked 4-6 weeks in advance. Any nonconformities require actions before the certificate is issued.
2-4 weeksReal ROI, not buzzwords
Concrete results from organizations that chose AmpliFlow.
defects reaching customers
Systematic deviation management catches problems before they leave the building. Less rework, happier customers.
onboarding
Documented processes mean new employees become productive faster. Knowledge stays in the company.
decision-making
Metrics and trends reveal where you're actually losing money - not where you think you are.
business opportunities
Many customers and tenders require ISO 9001. Certification opens doors that otherwise stay closed.
"AmpliFlow, which knows both management systems and IT, is a perfect partner. They have helped us with a smooth and logical structure with exactly the IT tools you need to go through a certification audit."
Most companies lose 15–25% of their revenue to poor quality
It doesn't show up as a line item in the books. It's scattered across departments: rework, warranty claims, customer complaints, lost customers. Want to see what it's costing you?
Everything you wonder about ISO 9001
How long does ISO 9001 certification take?
It depends on the organization's size and current maturity. For a mid-sized company (20-100 employees), it typically takes 3-6 months from start to certificate. With AmpliFlow, you can often shorten the time because the system guides you through all requirements.
What does ISO 9001 certification cost?
The cost consists of three parts: 1) Implementation (software + optional consultant), 2) Certification audit (varies by certification body and organization size), 3) Ongoing maintenance. See current AmpliFlow pricing on our pricing page.
Do we need to hire a consultant?
No, it's not a requirement. AmpliFlow is built so you can implement ISO 9001 yourself using built-in guides and templates. But if you want extra support, we offer consulting services for gap analysis, implementation and internal audit.
What happens if we fail the audit?
Most organizations get remarks the first time - and that's completely normal. You get time to address minor nonconformities before the certificate is issued. Focus on building a system that actually works, not on "passing the audit" - then the certificate follows naturally.
Can we manage multiple ISO standards in the same system?
Yes! AmpliFlow is built for integrated management systems. You can manage ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 and 27001 in the same system and benefit from shared processes for audit, deviation management and document control.
