Your ISMS looks inwards as well as outwards.

If those aren’t up to scratch, they won’t recommend you for certification. They’ll focus in particular on its core components.

Over the years, we’ve helped many clients achieve first time Stage 2 audit success. It needs to work as well in practice as it does on paper. You’ll need to show that your ISMS is more than just well-written documents and general good intentions. If you’re going for ISO 27001 certification, your Stage 2 audit will be one of the big crunch points.
