ISOQAR was founded in 1991 as one of the first independent certification bodies in the UK. It now enjoys one of the broadest scopes of accreditation in its industry. In October 2010 ISOQAR was acquired by the Alcumus Group, a multi-disciplinary provider of risk management, compliance and certification services (www.alcumusgroup.com). Today ISOQAR has its own regional auditors throughout the UK and a network of operations across the globe.
