00:01

my job. Nine.

00:05

During this module, we will cover an overview on the ice of 27,001 certification process

00:15

00:17

When are you ready for certification?

00:22

In this video, we will cover some aspect to consider

00:27

off when your eyes mess is ready for certification.

00:34

So how do you know when you're ready, ready to schedule your certification audits?

00:39

To be honest, you'll never really know for sure.

00:42

It will always feel like there is something more that could be done, something that could be made better.

00:48

So it's really up to you and what the needs of your organization are.

00:52

There are some factors that can give you an indication off this, like the internal audit. And if you have an independent gap assessment or readiness check done,

01:02

those would be your best quantitative indicators.

01:06

As those review should show you any glaring shortcomings which could jeopardize the results of your certification audit.

01:12

The next factor to consider would obviously be the deadlines your organization has.

01:18

Generally

01:19

implementing an ice miss is done for the returns it will yield.

01:23

So what? Most organizations wouldn't want to spend an indefinite amount of time getting the ice miss ready if the goal is to get it certified.

01:33

Depending on your deadline, you'll have to plan a bit more strategically and ensure that the internal audits and pre checks are done as early as possible to give you enough time

01:44

to work on any findings or nonconformity. Ease

01:47

before the certification ordered,

01:49

but also not too early,

01:53

so that there are still glaring gaps in your eyes mess.

01:57

The internal audits and gap assessments are not long multiple week exercises.

02:02

These should be a few days at most, depending on the size of your organization and your eyes mess scope.

02:09

Some can even be completed in a little as one day.

02:15

So again, use your internal audit as an indicator as to whether or not you already

02:22

use an independent party to perform a gap already. Nous assessment.

02:27

Often

02:29

your external certification auditor will offer you the service.

02:35

Take into consideration your organizational deadlines

02:39

specifically whether or not you have a specific time frame in which you are trying to become certified.

02:47

Ensure that you purchase the I so 27,000 and one standard

02:53

and any of the other supporting standards that you may require

02:57

and use that as your guide.

02:59
