The Office of Business Excellence (OBE) drives Certis’ culture of continuous improvement by embedding innovation, quality, and structured ways of working across the organisation. Through clear systems, standards, and strategic initiatives, OBE enables consistent delivery and strengthens confidence in how Certis operates and serves.
Our Mission
Empowering every Certizen to contribute ideas, innovate with purpose, and deliver consistent quality that strengthens trust with our customers and stakeholders.
OBE leads business excellence across Certis through three key pillars.
Turning Everyday Insight into Strategic Advantage.
Across Certis, great ideas surface every day. The BOLD ecosystem turns them into enterprise impact, through structured ideation, rapid experimentation, and strategic thought leadership. All grounded in design thinking, and built to scale what works.
The 3 Initiatives that form our Innovation Engine
Powered by collective intelligence, BOLD Lab is an always-on enterprise platform that channels ideas with what matters most to the business. Strategic priorities are defined upfront, giving teams clarity on the challenges worth solving, and teams respond with focused, high-value solutions.
Where Operational Rigour Meets Human Excellence.
The Certis Service Delivery System (CSDS) is our proprietary operational excellence framework that enables consistent, high-quality service delivery across complex environments. By integrating structured standards, competency-based training, governance and AI-enabled tools, CSDS ensures services are consistent, scalable and continuously improving.
How CSDS Supports Service Excellence
Our Silver and Gold certification frameworks provide an objective measure of service excellence, assessing every site against rigorous standards in delivery, compliance, and customer satisfaction, so you always know what to expect from us.
Quality You Can Measure, Standards You Can Trust.
Certis is certified to ISO 9001, the internationally recognised standard for quality management. This certification reflects our commitment to structured governance and performance practices that align our operations with internationally recognised quality standards across the organisation.
Through ISO 9001, Certis enhances service quality, improves efficiency, and ensures customer requirements are met consistently, across every business unit and operating environment we serve.
How ISO 9001 Supports Service Excellence
Innovation That Is Structured, Scalable, and Purposeful.
Certis is certified to ISO 56001, the internationally recognised standard for innovation management. This certification reflects our commitment to embedding structured innovation practices across the organisation, ensuring every initiative is governed by internationally recognised principles and aligned to business priorities and customer needs.
Through ISO 56001, Certis strengthens its capability to transform ideas into impactful solutions, supporting sustainable growth, operational excellence, and long-term value creation across every environment we operate in.
How ISO 56001 Supports Innovation Excellence
Our innovation efforts are not ad hoc. ISO 56001 ensures every initiative is deliberately connected to organisational priorities, so the ideas we pursue create real, measurable value for customers and stakeholders.
We take ideas the full distance. Structured processes guide every initiative from opportunity identification through to solution delivery, enabling scalable, repeatable innovation that does not stall between concept and execution.
Innovation at Certis is not siloed. ISO 56001 drives cross-functional collaboration and capability development across business units, building an organisation that can innovate consistently.
Every initiative is measured against clear outcomes. Structured performance evaluation and improvement mechanisms ensure our innovation efforts deliver tangible results, and that each cycle strengthens our long-term competitiveness.
