Steps to Certification with AVU

A client completes an application via web or email to receive a quote from AVU. This is at no cost or obligation to the client.

After reviewing the quote, the client accepts and signs the quotation and returns the contract to AVU.

An auditor is then assigned, taking into consideration factors such as location, scope, and experience of client. As a client you can request a specific auditor if you please.

The auditor will then contact the client to schedule the initial assessment audit. At least thirty days prior to the audit, AVU will send a detailed plan and schedule for the upcoming audit.

The audit is then conducted in accordance to the audit plan and schedule.

Upon completion of the audit, a detailed audit report is generated identifying any non-conformances (NCR).

The client works with the auditor to resolve any NCR's.

An AVU expert for approval then reviews the audit documentation.

Once the reviewer approves the closure of NCR's and payment is received, the certificate of registration is issued and sent to the client.

Our auditor will then work with the client to schedule surveillance audits to assure adherence to the applicable standard.
