Abstract
ISO/IEC 27001:2013 specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system within the context of the organization. It also includes requirements for the assessment and treatment of information security risks tailored to the needs of the organization. The requirements set out in ISO/IEC 27001:2013 are generic and are intended to be applicable to all organizations, regardless of type, size or nature.

..... As a curtain raiser, this is what is said in the ISrg in the abstract for ISO/IEC 27001:2013.

That will depend on the motives for 'getting it'. If you put a system in for the sake of a certificate, you will get a certificate and recognition of that fact so if you tender for work that requires you to have a certificate, you can do so.

If on the other hand, you put in a system designed to improve the way in which you manage your information security and then get external verification that you also meet ISO 27001 requirements, you will have a better business.
