ISO 9001 revision
The revision of ISO 9001 is officially under way, with the Draft International Standard expected in June 2025 and full publication anticipated in the second half of 2026. While the exact changes are still being shaped, certified organisations should expect updates that will impact how quality management systems are implemented and maintained. Being prepared now means you’ll be ready to transition smoothly when the time comes.

ISO 14001
ISO 14001:2026 has now been published, marking the start of the formal transition period for organisations certified to ISO 14001:2015. Certified organisations have until early April 2029 to complete their transition to the revised standard.

ISO 45001
ISO 45001 is now progressing through its revision, with the Draft International Standard (DIS) now published. As the final standard in the Annex SL trio to be updated, it remains slightly behind ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 in the revision cycle. While a confirmed publication date is still pending, current expectations point toward release in 2027. In the meantime, organisations certified to ISO 45001 should pay close attention to developments as they emerge.
