ISO Consultants for IT & Technology Companies
Helping Technology Businesses Improve Security, Win Enterprise Contracts and Build Trust
Whether you provide software development, managed IT services, cloud solutions, cybersecurity services, SaaS platforms or technology consultancy, maintaining customer trust and demonstrating effective controls is essential.

Implement structured processes to protect sensitive information, customer data and critical business systems.

Demonstrate that your organisation has effective controls in place when completing supplier questionnaires and security assessments.

Support Business Growth

Frequently Asked Questions
Mike Ives | Urathon
It is only because of the help & support from Candy Management that we have been able to reach this pinnacle in our regulatory compliance. We are also working very closely with Candy Management to achieve ISO 14000 accredited status in September, which we greatly anticipate being successful in achieving due to the close relationship our two companies have.
Simon Hatch | Regin Products Ltd
Candy Management helped us get ISO 9001 three years ago and has supported us every year since. This year Candy helped us get through the big re-certification audit and the auditor could not find one thing to even make an improvement suggestion on (which we know they like to do).
David Hutchinson | Alphin Pans
Candy Management was very helpful in helping us prepare for and leading us through the process for ISO 9001. Their professional approach and constant support and encouragement gave us great confidence that we were always on track to obtain accreditation.
Chris Rohde | Echo Hearing Products International Ltd
Candy Management has provided excellent consultancy services for our company during the past few years, enabling us to pass ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 9001:2015 external audits with glowing reports. Candy Management is highly recommended.
Zak Dalby | Hands on Mechanical Ltd
Working with Candy Management was a pleasure. As everyone is aware, trying to obtain further company accreditations can be a stressful time for all involved. The 2 days training were clear and concise and we were left with clear instruction on what to complete prior to the audit. I would highly recommend Candy Management to anyone looking to further their business.
Carolyn Robinson | E.S.Williams Contractors Ltd
Candy Management Consultants are supporting us through the implementation of ISO9001 accreditation. The team are working with our business timescales and are providing a high level of guidance, direction, recommendation and advice.
Ralph Hollingworth | Lima
I found Candy to be very reliable and available, always ready to help with advice and instruction on current and proposed legislation. I would not hesitate to recommend Candy Management Consultants as the most reliable and trustworthy management consultants.
Kirk Dixon | Dixon Group Ltd
Our consultant has been creating and guiding us through our QMS to achieve ISO 9001 accreditation and we couldn’t be happier with the service that our consultant & Candy Management have given us. They have worked around our business, not imposed themselves on anybody, been professional, very patient and flexible with us throughout.
Javid Musa | Total Clean
I am pleased to say that not only have we passed all audits and achieved certification of all of the above but under the guidance of our consultant and Candy MC, we now have a management system that should support us through future growth. I have no hesitation in recommending their services to anyone.
Stuart McLean | Brother UK
Candy have not only provided excellent guidance on ISO 27001, but also identified other areas of our ISO’s that could be improved, and shared that knowledge with us, together with their recommendations.
Ben Castell | The Workplace Depot
Candy Management Consultants were recommended, and they understood us as a business, and were able to tailor a system that was practical and useful. We go into our audits now knowing that our systems meet the high standards that we set.
