If you require certification of software by some standard, companies will build software that passes the certification standard.
But in my experience, the assumption that a security, quality, or whatever certification process correlates with actually secure, high quality, etc software does not have a lot backing it.
There's a big difference between dotting the i's and crossing the t's according to ISO-9001, and actually caring about software quality, and it seems like the standards make it harder to actually care and actually focus on delivering a good product.
