How audit-ready is your shop, really?

Eleven honest questions, mapped to the clauses an ISO 9001:2015 auditor actually checks. You'll get a readiness score and the exact gaps to close — in about 90 seconds. Built by a UK precision shop that runs its own quality system on this.

The system behind this check runs our own machine shop — it cut audit prep from three days to about an hour. Read the case study.

    Common questions

    What is an ISO 9001 readiness assessment?

    A structured look at how your current quality practices compare with what an ISO 9001:2015 auditor will actually check, clause by clause. It shows which evidence you already have, which is partial, and which is missing — so you close the gaps before you pay for an assessment, not during it.

    How long does ISO 9001 certification take for a small machine shop?

    For a 5–30 person shop starting from organised-but-informal, expect three to six months to build the evidence and run an internal audit cycle, then a two-stage external assessment. The biggest time-saver is keeping records as you work instead of reconstructing them before the audit — the difference between days of prep and about an hour.

    What does an ISO 9001 auditor actually check?

    Evidence, not intentions: a live risk register, calibrated instruments with due dates, competence and training records, version-controlled documents, inspection and FAI records, non-conformances with dispositions, corrective actions verified effective, internal audits, and a management review with the required inputs. The eleven questions above map to exactly those clauses — and DAS QMS keeps the evidence for every one of them as you work.

    Is this assessment free, and do you see my answers?

    Yes — free, no sign-up. Your score is calculated in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to email yourself the report or book a demo. It's a self-check to find gaps, not an audit; a real assessor will look deeper.

    This is a quick self-assessment to help you find gaps — it isn't an audit or a certification, and a real assessor will look deeper. But it's a faithful map of the clauses, built by people who get audited.
