Standards we audit.

Every scheme under ISO/IEC 17021-1. Above, what is already within the accreditation scope we are applying for; below, what comes after.

Within the scope we are applying for3 standards

  • ISO 14001:2015EnvironmentalIn process
  • ISO 45001:2018Health and safetyIn process

They join the scope progressively.

A standard not yet in scope can still be audited: we can do it today, with the same team and the same method. What joins progressively is the backing of accreditation, not the ability to audit.

Certification cycle

Three years. Six milestones.

A clear path from document review to recertification, with surveillance audits that keep your certificate alive.

** Dates and durations are illustrative. They vary with each client’s scope, size, complexity and location, and are confirmed in the commercial proposal.

Timeline · 36 monthsStage 1 of 6

01Initial phaseYear 0

Stage 1

Documentation review (CA-E1)

Month 0*

Purpose

Establish whether the system is ready for Stage 2. Conformity is not assessed yet and no nonconformities are issued: the outcome is a recommendation to proceed, or not to.

Requirements the auditor verifies· the list is not exhaustive

Carried out remotely or on site, depending on the scope. Remote does not cut days: it only limits what can be covered, and it requires a written assessment of whether the technology used was effective. The auditor works from the documentation you upload to the portal and from what can be seen of the site.

  • The documented information of the management system
  • Site conditions and readiness for Stage 2
  • The organization's understanding of the standard
  • Scope: sites, processes, levels of control and legal requirements
  • Resources assigned to Stage 2, agreed with you
  • The basis for planning Stage 2
  • That internal audit and management review have already been carried out
Deliverable
Stage 1 report: recommendation to proceed to Stage 2, or not · areas of concern · no nonconformities
When
First audit of the cycle.
Duration
Up to 20 % of the total initial certification time · 1 day minimum

02Initial phaseYear 0

Stage 2

On-site audit (CA-E2)

Month 1-3*

Purpose

Evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of the system in operation, on objective evidence. Findings are issued here, each documented against a specific requirement of the standard, without proposing cause or solution.

Requirements the auditor verifies· the list is not exhaustive

On site, with the full audit team. It is audited by sampling: in multi-site, the sample is the square root of the number of sites, and the head office is always included. Every finding is documented against a specific requirement of the standard, and the auditor suggests neither cause nor solution — that would be consultancy, which we cannot provide.

  • Actual implementation of the system in operation
  • Internal audit and management review, assessed separately
  • Handling of complaints
  • Effectiveness of the system against your own objectives
  • Operational control and progress of continual improvement
  • Interviews with key personnel and objective evidence of critical processes
Deliverable
Audit report §9.4.8 with conformities, major and minor NCs and observations, plus the audit team's recommendation
When
After Stage 1 closes and within the following 6 months (IAF MD 5). You may schedule them back to back; the portal warns you of the risk before letting you confirm.
Duration
The remainder of the initial certification time · on site

03Initial phaseYear 0

Decision

Issuing the certificate

Month 3-4*Decides

Purpose

Decide whether certification is warranted. The audit team does not decide: it recommends. The technical committee is what reviews, evaluates and issues, and none of its members took part in the audit.

What the technical committee reviews· the list is not exhaustive

There is no audit at this stage. The audit team closes its recommendation and the complete file passes to the technical committee, which reviews it, evaluates it and issues the decision. Separating who audits from who decides is a requirement of the standard, not an internal practice: without it the certificate cannot be issued.

  • The audit team's recommendation and the complete file
  • That major nonconformities are verified, not merely answered
  • That minor nonconformities have an accepted action plan
  • That no member of the committee took part in the audit
  • The effective scope, the standard and the current edition printed on the certificate
Deliverable
Three-year certificate, issued by the technical committee, with a public verification QR
When
You have 90 calendar days from Stage 2 to close the nonconformities.
Duration
Technical review and decision · no on-site audit

04SurveillanceYear 1

Surveillance 1

1st surveillance audit (FSA/SA)

Month 12*

Purpose

Confirm that the system remains implemented and still effective. It is not audited in full again: the eight elements the standard requires every year are verified.

Requirements the auditor verifies· the list is not exhaustive

A reduced sample compared with the initial audit — around 60 % of the square root of the number of sites — with the head office always included. The eight elements the standard requires every year are audited, not the whole system.

  • Internal audits and management review
  • Actions on NCs from the previous audit
  • Handling of complaints
  • Effectiveness of the system against your objectives
  • Progress of continual improvement
  • Ongoing operational control
  • Review of changes in the organization
  • Use of the mark and reference to certification
Deliverable
Surveillance report · keeps the certificate valid
When
Within 12 months of the decision. It is a requirement, and the system will not let it be scheduled later.
Duration
One third of the initial certification time

05SurveillanceYear 2

Surveillance 2

2nd surveillance audit (FSA/SA)

Month 24*

Purpose

Verify the same eight elements over one more year of operation. What changes is the sample and what has accumulated: the organization's changes and whatever was left open the year before.

Requirements the auditor verifies· the list is not exhaustive

Same mechanics as the first one, over a different subset of sites. What changes is what has accumulated: the organization's changes during the year and the closure of whatever was left open at the previous surveillance.

  • Internal audits and management review
  • Actions on NCs from the previous audit
  • Handling of complaints
  • Effectiveness of the system against your objectives
  • Progress of continual improvement
  • Ongoing operational control
  • Review of changes in the organization
  • Use of the mark and reference to certification
Deliverable
Surveillance report · keeps the certificate valid
When
On the second anniversary of the decision.
Duration
One third of the initial certification time

06RecertificationYear 3

Recertification

Renewal of the cycle (RA)

Month 33-36*Decides

Purpose

Evaluate the whole system against the current edition of the standard and its performance across the three years, in order to renew the cycle. The system is judged as a whole, not process by process.

Requirements the auditor verifies· the list is not exhaustive

Back to the full initial sample, or 80 % of it where the system has already shown maturity. Performance across the three years and the current edition of the standard are assessed, not just the moment of the audit.

  • The eight mandatory surveillance elements
  • System performance across the complete cycle
  • Changes in the edition of the standard since certification
  • Effective scope: if it was reduced, the new certificate reflects it
  • Effectiveness of the system as a whole
Deliverable
Certificate renewed for another 3 years, where applicable
When
Before the certificate expires, with room to decide.
Duration
Two thirds of the initial certification time

End of the cycleThe cycle renews for another 3 years

Nonconformities — they can arise in any audit

NCs can appear at any of the 6 milestones (E1, E2, Surveillance 1 and 2, Recertification). The team sets a defined deadline to close them with objective evidence. An unclosed major NC = suspension of the process (if initial) or of the current certificate (if surveillance).

Special audits — outside the schedule

Material changes (mergers, relocation, scope extension, change of standard, demergers) trigger a special audit outside the regular schedule. FVR must be notified within 30 calendar days of the change.
