Overview
Where most conformity-assessment standards are tied to a sector, ISO/IEC 17029:2019 deliberately is not. It sets general principles and requirements for the competence, consistent operation and impartiality of bodies performing validation and verification in any field, and is meant to be applied alongside programme or scheme requirements — greenhouse gas statements being the familiar case, where it took over the general provisions once held in ISO 14065, which now builds upon it. Accreditation bodies operating under ISO/IEC 17011 assess against ISO/IEC 17029 together with the requirements of the programme concerned.
The engagement is the unit of work, and this system follows one end to end: pre-engagement review of the request, establishing whether the claim, the criteria and the agreed level of assurance can be assessed at all; planning and operational control; execution and evidence gathering; then independent review, the decision, and reporting of the statement. Around that sit impartiality analysis backed by signed agreements, a competence framework with skill matrices and assessment records, control of outsourcing and external providers, rules for referring to validation and verification and using marks, and the appeals and complaints routes.
What this system covers
- Pre-engagement review — whether the claim, the criteria and the level of assurance can be validated or verified
- Planning, operational control and execution of validation and verification activities
- Independent review, the decision, and reporting of the statement
- Impartiality — risks from relationships, ownership and competing activities, with signed declarations and check reports
- Competence of validators, verifiers and technical experts — framework, skill matrix and competence assessment
- Outsourcing and externally provided products and services, plus equipment and calibration periodicity
- Reference to validation and verification, use of marks, appeals, complaints, internal audit and management review
Who it's for
Built for validation and verification bodies going for first accreditation to ISO/IEC 17029:2019 — greenhouse gas and sustainability claim verifiers among them — and for bodies that have worked to a programme rulebook alone and now must show the general standard underneath it. Every engagement then leaves the same trail: a documented pre-engagement decision, a plan, evidence, an independent review and a conclusion whose basis can be reconstructed years later.
