Avotus Corporation, the leading provider of fully integrated “source to pay” telecom lifecycle management solutions, today announced it has been certified 27001 compliant by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the British Standards Institution (BSI). By implementing a management system within a legislative and regulatory framework such as ISO 27001, Avotus’ Operations have demonstrated compliance and reduced exposure to risk.

“We continue to achieve ISO certification levels unparalleled in the telecom management industry,” said John Blyzinskyj, President and Chief Operating Officer of Avotus. “We remain committed to maintaining the highest level of maturity in the business processes field by ensuring that our solutions meet all regulatory and client needs. This certification illustrates our ongoing efforts to provide the best possible telecom expense management solutions to our clients, and our commitment to customer satisfaction.”

To secure 27001 certification, Avotus was carefully evaluated throughout the enterprise from operations and information systems to accounting and human resources. The analysis included a thorough audit of policies and practices governing operations confirming that these processes are applied with a commitment towards ongoing improvement. This external audit was in addition to the previous one conducted prior to achieving ISO 9001 certification earlier this year.

Avotus achieved ISO 9001 certification in February of 2010.
