How The Certification Process Works
Firstly, we’ll work with you to determine exactly which Standards and Certifications are right for your business, what you want to achieve out of the process for your business, and identify any deadlines you need to achieve Certifications by.
We will then go through with you what you already have in place and how effective you think it is, and what you’d like to see change. Depending on what you already have, the next step might be a Gap Analysis against the requirements of the Standard – this will give us a to-do list of what needs to be done before commencing the formal Certification process.
When it’s time for your Certification Audit, it’s conducted in two stages:
– Stage 1 (Readiness Review) is a full review of your business processes and documented information to ensure all requirements of the Standard (relevant to your business) have been addressed.
– Stage 2 (Certification Audit) is an assessment conducted at your office (and project sites, if applicable) to ensure that you actually do what your processes and documented information say you do.
All Certifications run on a three-year cycle, usually with audits 12 months apart, so, this initial audit process is then followed by:
– Year 2: Surveillance Audit
– Year 3: Surveillance Audit
Then the process starts again with a Triennial Audit, followed by two annual Surveillance Audits, and the cycle continues…
Some of the benefits of your business becoming certified could be:
You want to continually improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your business operations for sustainable growth
You want to mitigate your overall business risk (in some instances, Certification can reduce your insurance premiums)
Certification to a particular Standard could be a regulatory requirement within your industry
Certification could be required in order to tender for work above a designated value
Certification could be necessary to meet the contract requirements with your clients
Quality Certification is the most recognised way to prove to your customers that you’re serious about making them happy
Safety Certification is the most recognised way to demonstrate your commitment to a safe and healthy workplace
Environmental Certification is the most recognised way to demonstrate your commitment to minimising the impact your business has on the environment
Certification means that your Business Management System is certified to one or more Standards (ISO Standards).
