With a BSI gap assessment, you get the expertise of an independent auditor to take a closer look at your existing processes and procedures. This is then benchmarked against the requirements of the standard you want to achieve.
This gives your organization a view of any potential oversights or weaknesses, so you can take the appropriate action. It’s also a good introduction to more formal auditing and gives your team the opportunity to understand what a certification audit will entail.
Is it for me?
You can benefit from a gap assessment if any of the below apply to you:
- You’re thinking about achieving certification, but don’t know where to start
- You’ve read a BS or ISO standard and you want to implement it
- You’ve started implementing a management system and want to measure your progress
- You’ve already achieved certification to one or more management systems, and would like to achieve another
- You don’t need to have implemented a management system before undertaking a gap assessment. In fact, it can help you prepare your implementation plan or brief a consultant.
The benefit of a BSI gap assessment?
- Identify opportunities to improve your management processes, so you can take the right action to drive performance
- Give your stakeholders confidence in your organization’s readiness for attaining the standard and achieving certification
- Clarify the effort needed to achieve your desired standard using our independent observations, so you can plan resources, brief your team and get it right first time.
How it works?
- The gap assessment can be undertaken remotely or at your chosen location – remote audits can provide greater flexibility, particularly if you want to move quickly
- We’ll review your processes and information to identify potential gaps against the requirements of your chosen standard
- You’ll receive a detailed written report, so you know what actions to take to get closer to your goal.
