ISO 56001 certification: innovation management system

This international standard is designed to help organisations structure, implement and enhance their capacity to innovate, reducing uncertainty and maximising the creation of tangible and sustainable value. In a globally competitive environment, where technological development and adaptability are essential, innovation is a key factor in ensuring business success. Our accredited ISO 56001 certification service enables companies to demonstrate their commitment to a culture of innovation and greater operational efficiency, helping to enhance their reputation and appeal to strategic stakeholders.

Regulatory focus

The ISO 56000 series originated between late 2013 and early 2014 with the establishment of ISO Technical Committee TC 279 in Paris.

ISO Technical Committee TC 279, responsible for developing ISO standards for innovation management, recently introduced ISO 56001. This standard translates into practical requirements the principles and best practices already outlined in the UNI EN ISO 56002 guideline, published in 2021.
