What Is IRIS Certification®?

IRIS Certification® is an internationally recognized certification system for the railway industry, based on ISO 22163:2023 and the IRIS Certification® Performance Assessment requirements. It helps organizations establish a railway-specific quality management system, improve operational performance and demonstrate their commitment to quality across the rail supply chain.

With an experienced Egyptian team of consultants and engineers, we work closely with your organization from the initial assessment and IRIS Portal registration through system implementation, certification audit preparation and beyond.

From the first step to certification—and throughout surveillance—we are with you.
