|
| All audits
are managed in accordance with the latest
certification body standard Draft IEC/ISO
17021. This ensures that our audits are
exhaustively, impartially and uniformly conducted to
benefit our clients and their customers. |
|
| Prior to
commencement, our clients are expected to have
developed and operated their management system (be
it quality or environmental) and be prepared to
demonstrate the system to our auditor. Usually, we
will make an off-site appraisal of the documents
available prior to our visit to ensure that a
recognisable system is in place. A brief and factual
critique is given to our client to describe any
weaknesses. |
|
| On the day
of audit we examine available documentary evidence
of system implementation (correct forms completed
and filed etc) and walk-through the business
processes described. |
|
| We stress
that the audit is always friendly and easy-going,
after all, our purpose is to ensure that you receive
a fair, beneficial but impartial audit with
appropriate certification. Our audit is a necessary
step to ensure that before we can issue a
certificate, our client is operating a compliant and
certifiable system. |
|
| Audits
usually take a full day during which our findings
are discussed and action points agreed. Confirmation
of certification award or continuation follows
within one week. |
