DAS Certification

What DAS Certification does

DAS Certification (Danesh Entebag System) is an Iran-based, multi-accreditation ISO certification body and training academy founded in 2002. The company audits and issues ISO management system certificates under six international accreditations — SAS Switzerland, IAS, NACI Iran, ACCREDIA Italy, SNAS Slovakia, and NAH Hungary — making it the only multi-accreditation certification body in Iran. Its certification portfolio spans ISO 9001 (QMS), 14001 (EMS), 45001 (OH&S), 22000 (FSMS), 27001 (ISMS), 50001 (Energy), 22301 (BCM), 20000-1 (ITSM), 37001 (Anti-Bribery), 21001 (Educational Organizations), and 3834, with certificates valid for three years and annual surveillance audits. The firm holds the broadest NACI scope for ISO 22000 in Iran (categories C-D-I-E) and serves as secretary of Iran's ISO 22000 commission and chair of the ISO 14001 development commission.

Complementing its certification services, D.A.S operates a training academy offering CQI-IRCA registered lead auditor courses (in Persian and English) for ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, 22000, 27001, and FSSC 22000 v6, plus internal auditor and requirements courses delivered in-person and online via a Skyroom-based virtual platform. The company also publishes bilingual Persian-English reference books on standards including ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, 22000, 19011, 29001, and the forthcoming ISO 14001:2026, with course fees priced at a fraction of European equivalents (EUR 2,000–3,000 in Europe vs. substantially lower in Iran) while preserving international credentialing value via IQMS UK certificates.

DAS generates revenue through two professional services streams: man-day-rate certification fees (priced by scope, employee count, and site complexity, with 3-year cycles plus annual surveillance) and training course fees plus publication sales. Its customer base spans manufacturing, food, pharmaceutical, automotive, steel, chemical, oil & gas, petrochemical, electronics, machinery, services, and government organizations in Iran, with international training delivery in Norway, Denmark, Italy, Greece, and Switzerland. The Iran operations are led by CEO Dr. Ali Jalali, who was named World's Best CEO by IRCA in 2013 and holds 27+ years of international management standards experience.
