An ISO auditor explains the surveillance audit in ISO!
An ISO auditor explains the cycle of ISO audits and key points of each audit! Key points of each audit and specific examples of MD are also included.
Typically, ISO audits are conducted on a three-year cycle for renewal audits. I will explain the cycle in detail, separating it into cases of new certification acquisition and transfer audits. ■ In the case of new certification Year 1: Initial audit (Stage 1 audit, Stage 2 audit) Year 2: Surveillance audit Year 3: Surveillance audit Year 4: Renewal audit After the renewal audit in Year 4 is completed, there will be two more surveillance audits (over two years), followed by a renewal audit the following year, continuing the three-year cycle. ■ In the case of a transfer (change of certification body) audit In principle, it is possible to inherit the previous audit cycle. Many customers may think that "transferring is quite a hassle," but in our case, it can be done easily if you submit the following documents: - Application form (the sales department will assist in creating this) - Organizational chart (the sales department will assist in creating this) - Latest version of the manual data - Copy of the previous certification body’s certificate - Copy of the previous audit report - If there were any non-conformities in the previous audit, a corrective action report and evidence of corrective actions *We will provide a clear explanation of the surveillance audit in this ISO through related links.
