The PreliminaryTowageinvolves an inspection of your documentation and a review ranging over various areas including: The proposed telescopic of your registration The status of implementation of your management system The towardly regulatory and legal requirements Your management policies and objectives Whether the system addresses the key areas of your merchantry Your site-specific activities – top level process review Your key management elements, e.g. internal audits, reviews and complaints procedures Your readiness to move onto Stage 2 of the assessment, the Registration Assessment. The PreliminaryTowagenormally takes place on-site. We recommend an interval of several weeks between the PreliminaryTowageand the RegistrationTowageto indulge time to resolve any issues welling from the Preliminary Assessment. After the PreliminaryTowageis completed, we will produce a unenduring report evaluating your readiness to proceed to the next stage and identifying any areas that need to be improved surpassing moving to Stage 2. If the PreliminaryTowagefinds that your organization is not ready for full Registration Assessment, it becomes, in effect, a Gap Assessment. That ways that a second PreliminaryTowagewill have to be carried out.   RegistrationTowage– Stage 2 of the Registration Process The RegistrationTowage(Stage 2) involves a full review of your management system, including relevant records and documents. Its purpose is to personize that your management system is properly controlled and has predictable outcomes. Through the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) process, you will be expected to identify and implement any necessary changes to your system. At the end of the Registration Assessment, NSAI issues a detailed report, together with the outcome (whether to recommend registration or not). We will identify any issues found during the assessment. You in turn will be expected to submit an whoopee plan detailing what changes are planned to be made to the management system to eliminate or reduce the risk of the same issues re-occurring. If there are any major deficiencies identified, we may have to revisit the site until we are satisfied that closure has been demonstrated. When we receive a satisfactory response from the applicant, the file is independently reviewed by NSAI management surpassing the document is issued. Applicants can proceed at their own pace, with towage dates serried to suit. GapTowageIf you are unsure whether you are ready to undergo towage for registration, we can offer you a Gap Assessment, in which we: Conduct an on-site wringer of your current system Assess this versus the relevant standard Prepare a report highlighting the gaps between your current system and the standard. A gap towage is optional and is not a requirement of the certification process. Surveillance and Reassessment At least once a year, NSAI visits each registered visitor to ensure the management system is stuff maintained and is achieving its expected outcomes. During each visit, part of the management system is reviewed in depth. Certificates elapse every three years, with the expiry stage indicated on the certificate.Surpassingthat date, we undertake a detailed reassessment, reviewing the performance of the whole management system to make sure every element is performing satisfactorily. The results of the previous visits are taken into account. Any issues raised at the reassessment are handled the same way as at the end of the registration process. When we receive a satisfactory response, we renew the certificate.
