Esquema de certificación para PYMEs

Problem solved by ITMARK and the market opportunity

The market demands a less costly assessment and certification process in terms of price and staff hours in the existing multitude of certification schemes aimed at assessing and certifying IT company processes.

SMEs are reluctant to become certified. On the one hand, because of the cost and, on the other hand, because certifications are generally aimed at large companies.

Furthermore, new requirements such as the GDPR make it necessary to be prepared for possible sanctions.

ITMARK encompasses the best optimisation models in a single certification scheme, in which SME processes are assessed and certified in 4 main areas:

  • Business processes
  • Information security
  • Software development processes Service provision and GDPR compliance
