A Management system audit is an audit of the supplier´s Management System to verify compliance with the main principles in in

• • ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems,
  • 14001 Environmental Management Systems,
  • 27001 Information Security Management Systems
  • 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems

  • UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.

The audit will also verify the correctness of supplier’s capability assessment submitted in Magnet JQS. The audit is performed by contracted audit providers or Offshore Qualific auditors. The audit last one full day and can be either on teams or onsite.

The Management System audits contribute to:

• Cost efficiency – minimize operator’s and supplier’s workload with one audit for all operators on the NCS
• Possibility to share your audit report with other companies in Magnet JQS by choice
• Identification of improvement areas
• Verifies that your management system meets the requirements set by the industry
• Increased level of reliability of the suppliers’ capability assessment

Offshore Qualific has developed an audit type called Management System Limited Scope Audit that focuses specifically on:

• Human Rights
• Security
• Energy Management

This audit type is designed for companies already certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001, and provides a targeted evaluation of selected areas without the need for a full management system audit. There are no new requirements in the Limited Scope audit then what is in a full Management System audit. The audit will last a half day. The selection of which companies qualify for a limited scope audit is determined in a risk-based approach.

When you a notified by an audit provider that there is an upcoming audit, it will say in the audit notification which type of audit it is.

In addition to Offshore Qualics audit cooperations it’s possible to order your own Management System audits using our framework and methods.
