New mobile app provides ISO consultants fast, accurate calculations for audit days
Auva Certification has announced the launch of its new mobile app for the ISO industry. The app offers ISO consultants a way to provide its clients with fast and accurate estimates on the required number of certification audit days for ISO 9001: Quality Management Systems, ISO 14001: Environmental Management Systems and ISO 45001: Health and Safety Management Systems.
Available to download from the App Store and Google Play for free, it has been designed to provide ISO consultants with quick access to accurate calculations for audit days based on the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) MD 5 tables. These are guidelines that every certification body who is accredited by a signatory of the multilateral agreement, such as UKAS and ANAB, have to abide by to ensure consistency and market fairness as well as ensuring effective auditing of management systems.
The app includes estimate calculations of initial audit days, surveillance and reassessment. ISO consultants simply need to enter the number of employees, select which standards they will be certifying to, and answer a couple of simple questions to receive an estimated audit day requirement.
A digital step forward for ISO consultants and auditors
Graham O’Geran, business development officer at Auva Certification said; “We are delighted to launch this app to help support ISO consultants when they provide cost estimates to clients. It’s actually important for us and ISO consultants that businesses understand how the pricing of audits work. We make every effort to be transparent so businesses can spot when a certification body is either charging extremely high rates, or worse, under cutting audit days to get the business and risking their certification because they haven’t applied the rules correctly. This app will not only assist consultants in quoting potential clients but also ensure existing clients are being audited according to MD 5.”
The Auva app can be easily found by searching for ‘Auva Certification’ within the App stores.
