In short

ISO 37301 certification in Berlin at a glance

A company in Berlin may find itself under four or five rulebooks at once: data protection, financial-services rules, product and medical-device regulation, environmental permits and public-procurement conditions. The energy and environmental technology firms that Berlin Partner describes, from grids and storage to hydrogen and batteries, add their own sector duties. ISO 37301 is the compliance management system standard that lets all of those duties be handled through one structure: identify the obligations, assess compliance risks, assign owners, train, provide a channel for concerns, monitor, investigate and improve. It can be certified and scoped to a topic or division. Sterling builds the system from its Frankfurt office, with Effivity as the obligations register, and an accredited certification body issues the certificate.

The governing body and management leadThe governing body and top management set the compliance policy and support a culture in which compliance is expected.
A compliance function has authorityA compliance function is resourced, independent enough to act and has direct access to the governing body.
Compliance risks are assessedRisks of failing to meet obligations are assessed, and controls are designed in proportion to them.
Concerns are raised and handledPeople can raise concerns without fear of retaliation, and suspected breaches are investigated and corrected.
You monitor and reportCompliance performance is monitored, reported to leadership, audited and reviewed so the system improves.

ISO 37301 in Berlin: questions clients ask

Is ISO 37301 only for large Berlin organisations?

No. A small company with several obligations can run a proportionate system with an obligations register, named owners, short training and a reporting channel, and can limit the scope to a topic such as data or product compliance. Larger groups tend to certify wider scope.

What does ISO 37301 certification prove for a Berlin firm?

It shows that an audited system exists to identify and manage compliance obligations and to learn from problems. It does not prove that no breach has occurred or that the law has been satisfied. Discuss with your counsel how to use it with regulators and clients.
