In response to the growing demand for robust information security frameworks, QHSE ABERDEEN today announced the launch of a new, dedicated ISO/IEC 27001 consultancy and training service. This new offering is designed to help UK organisations implement and maintain world-class information security management systems (ISMS) to protect against evolving cyber threats and meet critical compliance standards.
With data breaches and compliance failures becoming more prevalent, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 has emerged as the international gold standard for managing information security risks. The new service positions QHSE ABERDEEN at the forefront of assisting UK businesses in achieving and retaining this essential certification.
“Security is now a central topic in boardrooms,” said Angela Scott, Director of QHSE ABERDEEN. “We’re launching this new training to support organisations in becoming resilient, trustworthy, and regulation-ready through ISO 27001 certification. This isn’t just about ticking a box; it’s about building a foundation of trust that can serve as a key competitive advantage.”
Why ISO 27001 Certification is More Critical Than Ever
As businesses increasingly rely on digital operations, protecting sensitive data is paramount. The ISO 27001 standard provides a systematic approach for an ISMS, enabling businesses to safeguard information and defend against both internal and external threats. For many, certification is no longer optional—it’s a prerequisite for doing business.
“Many of our clients are now being asked for ISO 27001 before they can even bid on major contracts,” Angela added. “Our service helps them not only achieve certification but also leverage it to secure new opportunities and demonstrate their commitment to data security.”
Who Benefits Most from ISO 27001?
QHSE ABERDEEN’s new service is tailored for a wide range of organisations, including:
B2B Service Providers and Supply Chain Businesses: Certification is becoming a requirement for supplier onboarding in many large enterprises, making it a fast track to building trust and securing competitive contracts.
SMEs Aiming for Growth: Smaller firms can use ISO 27001 to demonstrate credibility and readiness for enterprise partnerships and investment, reducing long-term risk.
Businesses Handling Sensitive Data: Organisations in finance, healthcare, and legal services can use the standard to systematically manage and mitigate risks, aligning with legal and contractual requirements like GDPR.
Tech Companies and SaaS Providers: As the UK’s Cyber Security and Resilience Bill advances, ISO 27001 helps organisations prepare for compliance with NIS regulations and other international standards.
A Strategic Investment, Not Just a Checklist
QHSE ABERDEEN’s new service treats ISO 27001 as a dynamic framework, not a static checklist. It focuses on integrating security practices into daily operations to ensure long-term value beyond certification. The benefits include structured risk-based decision-making, enhanced operational resilience, and increased stakeholder confidence through third-party assurance.
“Our approach is not one-size-fits-all. We tailor implementation and training schedules to each organisation’s size, risk profile, and sector,” Angela explained. “This ensures that businesses get a system that truly works for them, providing long-term value.”
QHSE ABERDEEN’s expert-led support includes gap analysis, ISMS design, staff training, and internal audit preparation.
With this new offering, QHSE ABERDEEN reinforces its commitment to enabling responsible and resilient business practices across the UK. For organisations seeking to grow, compete, and protect their most valuable assets, ISO 27001 certification is now a strategic necessity.
