This is a typical timeline. You can find out more about a section by clicking on it.



Gap Assessment

During the first part of the project, our consultant conducts a complete gap assessment. The consultant will observe the operations of your company, interview key employees and observe operations in order to get a complete picture of your compliance status. The consultant will use the information to write a comprehensive initial report telling you where you company complies with the standard and where it does not. The consultant will also use the information to write any procedures that are required.

Document the system

As part of our service, consultants document the management system for your company. This documentation will be the MINIMUM amount required to meet the requirements of the standard and to meet the needs of your company. Our experience allows us to write procedures that are compliant but not bureaucratic. The procedures outline your business in a clear and concise manner.

By allowing us to write your procedures you avoid the hassle of trying to write them yourself. You also avoid the pitfalls that people commonly encounter when trying to write procedures themselves. Often, fear of failure will cause people to write procedures that are more detailed, inflexible and bureaucratic than is necessary. Because we’ve assisted with the registration of many companies, we know how to write procedures that are lean and efficient.

Training

Training is an important part of implementing a successful project. M-Tek provides awareness and internal audit training by lead assessor trained consultants. Certificates are issued to all trained auditors.

Select the Assessment Body

Having assisted many companies to gain certification with several different assessment bodies, we have plenty of experience when it comes to working with auditors. Over the years, we have worked with many of the assessment bodies. In many cases your consultant will know the individual assessor conducting the audit. We can assist you in the selection of the registrars, help you interpret their quotes and proposals and ensure you get the service you need at the price you want.

Implementation

Many companies struggle with the implementation of their quality system. At M-Tek we know the pitfalls that companies commonly find. We will help you avoid these pitfalls. Our consultants are available during your implementation phase to answer questions, provide tools and to assist you in your implementation.

Pre-assessment

Included in our service is a complete pre-assessment. An expert M-Tek consultant will conduct a full pre-assessment of your company against the requirements of the standard in order to ensure that you are ready for assessment.

The pre-assessment is like an insurance policy against failure. The consultant will give you a written report that points out any places were your system is weak or noncompliant. This allows you to fix the system and to go into your assessment with confidence.
