Before you book your certification audit, it pays to know whether you’ll actually pass. A certification readiness review is a focused, fixed-scope assessment that compares your management system against the standard and tells you, clearly and honestly, where the gaps are and what to fix first.
What is a certification readiness review?
Think of it as a dress rehearsal for your audit. We review your documentation, processes and evidence the way an auditor would, against the requirements of your standard (ISO 9001, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, ISO 45001 or several at once), and hand you a prioritised list of what’s audit-ready and what isn’t.
What you get
- A clear pass/fix verdict against each key requirement of the standard
- A prioritised gap list: what must be fixed before audit, and what can wait
- Practical, specific recommendations (not generic checklists)
- An honest view of whether your target audit date is realistic
- Optional support to close the gaps we find
Who it’s for
Organisations approaching a first certification audit who want certainty before they commit, and certified businesses who’ve changed a lot since their last audit and want to avoid surprises (and non-conformities) at the next one.
What happens next
If you’re ready, we’ll help you choose an accredited certification body. See our guide to ISO certification bodies in Australia. If there’s work to do, we can help you do it. Either way, you’ll know exactly where you stand.
