Why is quoting so hard for certification bodies?
Why is quoting so hard for certification bodies?
Pricing a certification audit is rarely simple. Your team works through standards, versions, accreditation rules, site counts, and audit days — often across spreadsheets. And the stakes are real. One wrong number can mean non-compliance, a delayed proposal, or lost margin. Worse, it’s your highest-value deals — multi-site and integrated audits — that are the hardest to get right and the most costly to get wrong.
What does effective audit scheduling deliver?
Accurate audit days without manual maths, complex multi-site and integrated quotes built in minutes, and a proposal generated in one step — then pushed straight into planning with nothing re-keyed. Faster offers, cleaner numbers, and a consistent audit trail behind every quote.
How does Zertic quoting work?
Zertic takes a quote from build to accepted handover in one continuous flow.

Build
Handle any quote scenario in one place
Start from an acquisition workflow and select the client, standard, and version. Build initial or renewal quotes for single or multiple standards. For multi-site, the certificate card lets you add sites and assign EA, NACE, SIC, and IAF categories and scope per site.
Calculate
Get accurate audit days without manual maths
Audit hours and cost types are calculated per standard and per site, driven by version, protocol, and accreditation body. Link stages into combination audits, or integrate ISO standards across years with a reduction percentage and a recorded motivation.
Send
Generate and send the proposal in one step
Generate the quote proposal as a ready document, with names, addresses, dates, and calculations already filled in. Send it to the client straight from the workflow, with automated emails, attachments, alerts, and translations.
Handover
Move accepted quotes into planning without re-entry
When the client accepts, push the quote to planning in one move. Certificates, reference dates, and emails carry across automatically, ready to use for planning and execution.
What is automated quote calculation?
Calculation turns the data your client provides into audit time and costs automatically — no spreadsheets, no manual formulas.
