Consultancy

Kiwa brings you Trust, Quality and Progress. We do so by applying our leading-edge expertise and knowledge in a wide variety of subjects, industries and markets. When it comes to quality, safety, health, sustainability, uptime and profitability, it is an advantage to have a partner to share knowledge with and to grow with. A partner you can consult to help you in day-to-day work and in tackling the challenges facing your organisation. Kiwa can be that partner.

Note that we strictly separate our consultancy services from our testing, inspection and certification activities. There is no connection whatsoever; all our services are fully independent.
