How we work
A five-step implementation
- 1
Discover and assess
Confirm scope, interview roles and sample source-backed evidence.
- 2
Design the system
Agree the process model, controls, owners and items still needing a decision.
- 3
Implement and train
Run the work with approved templates and role-based guidance.
- 4
Audit and review
Test independence, follow actions and hold a real management review.
- 5
Sustain and prepare
Maintain evidence and coordinate independently with a chosen certification body.
Timing and scope
No timeline before the inputs are known
Scope first
Locations, activities, products and interfaces.
Time follows evidence
Estimate after sampling available records and capacity.
Specialists where needed
Safety, food and environmental controls require qualified review.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does this service include certification?
No. We provide consulting and training. An independent certification body makes any certification decision.
How is the implementation period estimated?
Only after confirming scope, locations, process complexity, available records and internal capacity.
Do we need to replace every existing document?
No. Useful controls are retained; changes are proposed only where evidence shows a gap or usability problem.
Related training
Understand each role’s responsibilities
Role-based training belongs in an approved implementation or expansion scope. Knowledge-check scores do not replace competence assessment or compliance decisions.
