BRCGS Post Certification Services
Have you recently been certified to the BRCGS standard? Are you grappling with certified system maintenance and improvement?
Achieving certification is one thing – maintaining and improving your system is another! We ensure that you not only stay at compliance level – but give you an organisation-wide system for driving performance improvement, heres how:
Internal Audits
We develop and implement your internal auditing system based on a comprehensive risk assessment which prioritises critical audits and we conduct a system compliance audit, typically prior to your annual management review. We work as an extension of your management team conducting internal audits, typically on a quarterly basis.
Risk Assessment Reviews
Change is the only constant – new suppliers, methods, people and equipment could lead to new hazards; your risk assessments require regular review.
Management Review Facilitation
Management reviews are the single most important event on your management system calendar – transform these reviews into value adding workshops, engaging your management team, delivering real benefit through our facilitated approach.
Compliance Management Software – online, real time.
Speed up critical compliance data capture and analysis while reducing the administrative burden. This can be achieved through a simple,
