process. Our goal is to provide value added certification services that are professional,
ethical and customer focused. ASR does not engage in any activity that can be construed
or perceived as a conflict of interest such as:
- Suggesting or indicating certification would be simpler, easier or less expensive if a specified consulting or training service were used
- Marketing consulting by a related body and registration together
- Providing certification of management systems if the ASR auditor or sales associate has provided internal audits or consulting within the previous 2 years.
ASR requires auditors, clients, employees and related bodies to comply with the above
and not to engage in any activity that can be perceived as a conflict of interest. All
personnel internal or external are required to identify threats to impartiality and make
these threats known to ASR. ASR uses an on going risk analysis tool, an external nonbiased
advisory board and a financial review committee to ensure we identify, analyze
and minimize any threats to our certification process.
Maintaining integrity and impartiality throughout the certification process allows ASR to
provide certification services that assist our clients with growth and improvement of their
organizations.
