Does ISO have any involvement with conformity assessment? As it reads in the ISO FAQ section:

It is not the role of ISO to verify that ISO standards are being implemented by users in conformity with the requirements of the standards. However, in partnership with IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission), ISO develops ISO/IEC guides and standards to be used by organizations which carry out conformity assessment activities. The voluntary criteria contained in these guides and standards represent an international consensus on what constitutes best practice. Their use contributes to the consistency and coherence of conformity assessment worldwide and so facilitates trade across borders. You can find more information about these activities in the Conformity assessment pages of ISO Online's section Communities and markets.

The ISO superb dedication is to the development and publication of standards. For more information on the ISO FAQ responses.

Summary:

The sole role of the ISO is to publish specification standards, mainly for technical needs to help in industry with guidance specifications helpful in establishing conventional knowewledge. .
