ISO 29001 is the quality management standard specific to the petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries. It builds on ISO 9001 and adds sector-specific requirements, designed for suppliers of products and services in the oil and gas chain. For an Angolan company wanting to supply the large operators, it is the standard that speaks their language. AGH prepares your company; DQS certifies.
All the requirements of ISO 9001, plus additional sector-specific controls: rigorous supplier and materials management, control of critical processes, reinforced traceability and defect prevention across the oil and gas supply chain.
We carry out the diagnosis against the standard, structure the sector-specific processes and controls, produce the manuals and procedures, train the team and conduct the internal audit, until the company is ready for certification.
DQS, an accredited and independent certification body, carries out the certification and issues the certificate, contracted and paid to DQS. AGH is DQS's exclusive Channel Partner in Angola. The version in force is ISO 29001:2020, with the 2024 climate action amendment.
A typical journey runs from five to nine months, depending on size, the complexity of the processes and the starting point.
AGH's fees for preparation, and the certification audit contracted to DQS, are set following the free diagnosis.
