It can help you set yourself apart from the competition, thereby enabling you to compete with other organisations, even the largest ones. In addition, in some sectors accreditation is a requisite for securing authorization to be able to provide certain services; in others it is a defacto licence that key purchasers deem necessary.

Furthermore, the outcome of the assessor’s work is a report or certificate which does not allow the evaluation of whether the activity has been performed properly. So accreditation is the most reliable parameter to select an assessor.

Accredited assessors should have in place a system for processing complaints and its correct functioning is assessed by UAO.
