Lopterra provides management systems implementation and certification support to organizations operating in Nigeria and South Africa. Our role is to help you design, implement, and maintain management systems that meet international standards while remaining practical, proportionate, and aligned with your business operations.
We focus on building systems that are certification-ready, but also genuinely useful for governance, risk management, operational control, and continual improvement.
We support the implementation and certification of a wide range of internationally recognised management system standards. Each system is tailored to your size, industry, and regulatory environment.
Supported standards include (but are not limited to):
ISO 9001 – Quality Management Systems
ISO 14001 – Environmental Management Systems
ISO 45001 – Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems
ISO 27001 – Information Security Management Systems
ISO 22301 – Business Continuity Management Systems
ISO 22000 – Food Safety Management Systems
Integrated Management Systems (IMS)
Rather than template-driven documentation, our implementation support is focused on embedding management systems into daily operations.
Key outcomes of our approach include:
Clear and audit-ready management system documentation
Defined roles, responsibilities, and governance structures
Improved risk identification and operational control
Increased confidence ahead of certification and surveillance audits
Management systems that support continual improvement, not just compliance
Our implementation approach is structured, methodical, and aligned with ISO best practices. It is designed to reduce disruption, clarify responsibilities, and ensure readiness for certification audits.
Our implementation approach includes:
Scope definition and management system design aligned to organizational context
Development of policies, procedures, manuals, and required documented information
Risk assessment methodologies and control frameworks appropriate to operations
Process mapping, controls, and performance indicators
Staff awareness, role-based training, and implementation support
Certification body coordination and audit preparation support
