What the documents do not cover

  • An accredited certification body issues the certificate after auditing your management system. doooqs prepares the documents for that system.
  • The three categories, the manufacturer, the service provider and the project contractor, show the required HSE certificate field in the guide.
  • The manufacturer form includes the code of conduct, the company profile, the registration or incorporation, VAT, audited statements for three years, the ownership and authorised signatory details and the IBAN letter, and local zakat, chamber, Saudisation and social insurance certificates. Which fields are required differs by type, and the manufacturer list belongs to that category. The Ma’aden portal also states compliance with cybersecurity requirements.
  • Business continuity supporting documents.
  • Check each buyer’s requirements in its own portal, since they change and may include licences and registrations the documents do not cover.

Questions

Does Ma’aden require an ISO certificate, or is a documented system enough?

In the pictures of the registration guide, a field for uploading an ISO certificate related to health, safety and the environment is required for the manufacturer, the service provider and the project contractor, and a question on the quality manual allows an attachment.

Which management system documents does Ma’aden ask for by name?

A yes or no question about the quality manual for the manufacturer, the service provider and the project contractor, an attachment required on “yes”, and business continuity support documents shown.
