Practical, auditor-led ISO consultancy for UK maritime businesses, marine-services providers and commercial diving operations. From gap analysis to certification readiness across ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 and ISO 27001 — led by an IRCA Registered Principal Auditor.
Most maritime and marine operators benefit from an integrated approach across quality, environment, safety and information security.
For maritime and marine-services operators, ISO 9001 brings consistency to vessel operations, shoreside services and project delivery — giving charterers, ports and clients confidence in how you work.
Marine pollution is one of the sector’s most scrutinised risks. ISO 14001 helps you manage environmental aspects, discharges and waste in a way that sits comfortably alongside MARPOL obligations.
Marine and diving operations are inherently high-hazard. ISO 45001 gives you a structured occupational health and safety management system to control those risks and protect your people.
From crew data to vessel-tracking and operational systems, maritime businesses hold information worth protecting. ISO 27001 establishes a risk-based information security management system (ISMS).
For commercial diving operations, we structure safety management so it sits comfortably alongside the Diving at Work Regulations 1997 and the relevant IMCA reference areas. TAC is independent of IMCA — we frame our support as aligned with IMCA reference areas rather than claiming any IMCA membership or certification.
A clear path from where you are now to certified, maintainable management systems.
We assess your current arrangements against the relevant standards and produce a clear, prioritised picture of what stands between you and certification.
We help you build the policies, processes and controls each management system needs — proportionate to your operations, vessels and shoreside teams.
We run internal audits and prepare you for external assessment, so findings are caught and resolved before your certification body ever sees them.
A pre-certification review by an IRCA Registered Principal Auditor means you walk into Stage 1 and Stage 2 assessments with confidence.
Certification is the start, not the finish. We help you keep each system living through surveillance audits, management reviews and continual improvement.
Maritime management systems generate a constant stream of evidence — risk assessments, corrective actions, audit findings, dive project records, environmental aspects and management reviews. Keeping all of that current is where many operators slip between surveillance audits.
After implementation, many of our clients use PICMS to maintain that evidence, track audit actions and stay continually compliant. PICMS is a separate UK-built ISO compliance platform, designed by an IRCA Registered Principal Auditor — it is the software, while TAC provides the consultancy.
