TickIT Certification

The TickIT scheme is an ISO 9000 management system certification for software producers and service suppliers. It is geared toward organizations where the primary business activity is the development and distribution of software products, the operation of data centers or the provision of information services. The scheme provides best practices for design, development and support throughout the software development lifecycle. SGS is a trusted leader in software quality assurance certification, including TickIT.

A TickIT management system enables you to optimize your software development and support operation by reducing malfunctions, late deliveries and unexpectedly high maintenance costs. Independent, third party SGS Tick IT auditors provide practical ways to continuously improve your operation while demonstrating your commitment to delivering a high quality software product.

SGS is a trusted leader in third party audit and certification services. As a supplier or provider of software products and services, certifying your quality management systems against the TickIT requirements enables you to:

• Reduce the risk of system malfunctions and downtime
• Improve the effectiveness of your product / services
• Understand your customers' needs at every stage of their product life cycle 
• Provide for continual improvement, resulting in improved product quality and repeatability
