ANTI-BRIBERY MANAGEMENT
ISO 37001 certification
Put proportionate controls around bribery risks.
Prepare for ISO 37001 certification with practical advice and documentation tailored to your organisation. We help you connect the requirements to the way you work.
What can ISO 37001 do for your organisation?
ISO 37001 sets out requirements and guidance for an anti-bribery management system. It helps organisations prevent, detect and respond to bribery risks in their activities and business relationships.
Assess bribery risks
Identify exposures across transactions, business partners and operating environments.
Set clear responsibilities
Define oversight, reporting arrangements and responsibilities for key controls.
Apply due diligence
Use risk-based checks and proportionate controls for relevant transactions and partners.
Respond to concerns
Provide reporting channels and procedures for reviewing and addressing suspected bribery.
Documentation tailored to your organisation
We start with your activities, responsibilities and existing records. Together we define the certification scope and identify what needs to be prepared.
Documentation for your scope
We can help prepare or review the bribery risk assessment, policies, due diligence procedures, financial controls and reporting arrangements.
Submission to the certification body
We submit the prepared documentation to the certification body for assessment.
Support throughout the process

Frequently asked questions about ISO 37001

How much does certification preparation cost?
The price depends on your activities, organisation size, number of sites and the scope of support. Share your details for a quote that sets out the work involved.
How long does the process take?
Timing depends on the documentation you already have, your readiness and the certification body’s schedule. We can discuss an indicative timetable after reviewing your needs.
