	SSAIB offers a wide range of product approval and certification schemes. A product scheme, which may relate to services or systems, demonstrates compliance with Irish or European standards or SSAIB codes of practice and associated criteria. Product schemes deal with how systems are designed, installed or maintained and the competence of the organisation delivering the system or service.

Individual schemes are generally referred to as either Certification or Approval schemes.

Certification Schemes are those which are independently assessed, accredited and monitored by the Irish National Accreditation Board (INAB). SSAIB is currently seeking INAB accreditation.

Approval Schemes are those which have not generally required INAB accreditation, but which still require providers to demonstrate compliance with relevant Irish or European Standards or SSAIB codes of practice or associated criteria.

All Certification Schemes and Approval Schemes require a competent management system to be in place. However, the above schemes do not need providers to have ISO 9001 management systems certification.

ISO 9001: 2000 management systems certification offers a more formal approach to management and focuses on the business framework, with an emphasis on the processes that create and control the products and services a company provides. An effective management system, which may be compliant with ISO 9001 requirements, will provide a structured approach and help to clarify and achieve business aims and objective. If required, SSAIB offers ISO 9001: 2000 schemes designed to compliment its product certification schemes.
