For those who’ve been through ISO certification in Kenya recently—how affordable is the process now? I’m seeing a growing number of SMEs pursuing it, especially in manufacturing and service sectors, and I’m wondering if there’s been a shift in how pricing is structured.
Some consultants now offer bundled packages that include ISO training, documentation, and audit preparation, which seems more practical than dealing with it piecemeal. One name that kept popping up was a company offering pan-African services—seems like they have a grip on regulatory expectations here.
Anyone here who’s navigated the costs and could share how much budgeting is realistic, especially for ISO 9001? Did the benefits outweigh the initial investment?
