Certification Audit:
A full audit of your management systems.
Auditor findings are raised in a Report, for your action.

Congratulations, your organisation now has an internationally recognised ISO certification.
Step 3: Maintaining Certification
Post-certification Audits
Periodic surveillance audits will typically occur every 12 months, depending on the assurance program(s), your requirements, and your level of risk.
Re-certification audits take place every 1 to 3 years, depending on the assurance program(s), your requirements and your level of risk.
Follow-up audits and special audits are conducted on an “as needed” basis.
So long as we are satisfied there are no outstanding issues that present an unacceptable risk to you or your other stakeholders, we will maintain your Certificate of Confidence.
We're in the Business of Assurance.
Our point of difference is that we are in the business of assurance; certification is the result of assurance, not just the reason for it.
It's important to remember that you and your stakeholders want confidence, and not just a piece of paper that says so.
