FAQs
Does Cloudcon issue ISO certification?
No — Cloudcon isn't a certification body or consultancy. It's software that generates the records and evidence an accredited auditor looks for during a certification audit.
Which ISO standards does Cloudcon support?
Cloudcon generates the audit trail for ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 45001 (Safety), and ISO 14001 (Environmental) — the three most relevant to civil and construction contractors. It doesn't certify you to these standards; your certification body does.
Can Cloudcon help us prepare for our next audit?
Yes — inspection records, NCRs, training logs, and sign-offs are all timestamped and retrievable, so audit prep becomes a matter of exporting records rather than chasing paperwork.
Do we still need a consultancy like Edara?
If you're not yet certified, yes — you'll need an accredited certification body or consultancy to run that process. Cloudcon supports what happens after: keeping the records that certification requires, ready for your next audit.
