Audit Phases and Responsibilities

The certification process covers preparation, execution, and follow-up activities to verify that a client’s management system meets international standards. Each audit is conducted by qualified auditors, ensuring consistent evaluation, accurate reporting, and fair decision-making throughout the process.

• Initial steps include contract review and offer preparation to ensure requirements and scope are clearly defined.
• Audit preparation involves planning resources, defining audit programs, and scheduling activities with the client.
• Stage 1 audit reviews documentation, readiness, and key processes to confirm system implementation.
• Stage 2 audit verifies effectiveness, compliance, and performance through in-depth on-site evaluations.
• Certificates are issued after successful audits, followed by regular surveillance and recertification cycles.
