Making SABS certification services more digitally enabled

The South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) is taking another step forward in its digital transformation journey with the launch of Module 1 of the Certification Information Management System (CIMS).

CIMS is a new digital platform designed to support the management of certification information and processes, helping SABS create a more streamlined and efficient experience for clients and certificate holders.

What does this mean for SABS clients?

The introduction of CIMS supports SABS’ ongoing commitment to improving the way clients interact with its certification services.

As the system is progressively implemented, clients and certificate holders can expect a more digitally enabled environment that supports:

  • Improved access to certification information
  • More streamlined certification processes
  • Greater consistency in the management of certification information
  • A more efficient digital experience Improved visibility of certification-related processes and information

The implementation of CIMS forms part of SABS’ broader commitment to modernising its services and using digital solutions to better support organisations that rely on SABS certification.

Learn how to use CIMS

To help users make the most of the new system, SABS has developed practical, step-by-step video guides covering key CIMS functions.

Whether you are getting started with CIMS or need guidance on a specific process, the videos provide a simple walkthrough to help you navigate the system.

SABS is committed to supporting clients and certificate holders as CIMS is introduced. Users are encouraged to familiarise themselves with the system and make use of the available video guides and support channels.

As additional CIMS functionality is introduced, SABS will continue to communicate relevant updates and guidance.

CIMS is an important step in SABS’ digital transformation – helping us build more accessible, efficient and connected certification services for the organisations we serve.
