ISO 20000-1 certification in Cardiff at a glance
Central Cardiff's ICT sector, shared service teams and data centre capacity depend on services that run to agreement. ISO 20000-1 is how providers prove that delivery is controlled, and Welsh public and corporate clients increasingly ask for the evidence. ISO/IEC 20000-1 requires IT services to be planned, delivered and improved through a managed system covering catalogue, incident, change, problem, capacity and supplier control. Enterprise Zone occupiers and their suppliers hear these questions regularly. Sterling's London office takes on Cardiff engagements, with Effivity and Sterling Academy included with the engagement; the certificate is issued by an accredited certification body. Legal and accreditation detail stays on the United Kingdom page.

ISO 20000-1 in Cardiff: questions clients ask
Who uses ISO 20000-1 in Cardiff?
ICT service providers, shared service centres and larger internal IT teams in and around Central Cardiff. Clients value proof of controlled incident and change handling. The standard is voluntary, so adoption follows contract and tender expectations. The wording of the contract decides what is actually required.
Can ISO 20000-1 and ISO 27001 share a Cardiff provider's audits?
Yes. They use a common management-system structure, so internal audit, management review and corrective action can serve both, and many certification bodies offer combined audits. The subjects differ: service delivery on one side, information security on the other. Ask the customer to confirm the exact expectation in writing.
