Rapid Response Team
In uncertain and challenging times, the focus on any business is maintaining cashflow and keeping the doors open.
For those that have existing certification requirements, maintaining records and paperwork is probably the least of your priorities, and for those that are commencing this process, it is probably extremely challenging to implement change.
This may result in the compliance aspect of the business having being derailed either a little or a lot, and that’s not only understandable, but ok.
From a risk perspective, maintaining compliance is a necessity for both contractual and/or funding requirements. Unfortunately, JAS-ANZ is extremely reluctant to see audit time frames extended or postponed.
In this new world, the majority of audits will now be conducted remotely keeping your existing certification cycle. If there are gaps, please don’t be disheartened by non-conformances. Auditors will probably issue these more frequently moving forward.
No one could predict the events of the last few months and having non-conformances or weaknesses in the system should be seen in a positive light, as an opportunity for improvement. Regrouping and looking at more efficient ways of operation will result in cost savings, greater accountability and risk minimisation.
