The initial audit is conducted in two stages:

  • Stage 1: Evaluation of documentation and management system readiness

  • Number of employees
  • Number of locations (multi-site)
  • Complexity of business processes

Certification Decision

Granting
A certificate can only be issued if the certification decision-maker has approved the audit report and the audit team's recommendations. Conversely, if the audit team's recommendations are rejected, the certificate cannot be issued, the certificate is valid for a period of 3 years from the date of issue.

Refusing

  • The desired scope does not match/is not covered by the Certification Body
  • The client does not meet the agreed-upon requirements and regulations
  • There are indications of a potential violation of established company policies
  • The repairs have not been completed by the specified repair deadline

Transfer
PT. Aksesindo Cakrawala Perkasa conducts a review of certificate transfer applications by assessing the applicant's management system and the certification body issuing the certificate before undertaking the certification process. This review aims to ensure:

  • The applicant's certificate status is still valid at the time of submitting the certificate transfer application
  • The certificate body issuing the certificate is still accredited by the authorized institution
  • Information regarding the applicant demonstrates sufficiency for an audit
  • The scope of the requested certification can be served by PT. Aksesindo Cakrawala Perkasa Certification

During the suspension, the certificate is no longer valid. PT Aksesindo Cakrawala Perkasa sets a maximum time limit for resolving issues leading to the suspension, which is three months (90 calendar days).

Reinstatement
A suspension certification can be reactivated if the issues that caused the freeze have been resolved and verified within the freeze period.

Revocation
Certification may be revoked if the client fails to resolve the suspension within the specified time limit (after the suspension period has expired), fails to meet financial obligations, is found to have misused the certificate, or voluntarily requests revocation. Clients whose certifications have been revoked are prohibited from using the certification logo or references.

  • The applicant's certificate status is still valid at the time of submitting the certificate transfer application

  • Information regarding the applicant demonstrates sufficiency for an audit

Expansion and Reduction of Scope

Expansion Scope
May be granted to clients who already have an active certificate that is not currently suspended or revoked, after reviewing the application and relevant audits for the requested additional scope. Extensions can only be made if all previous audit findings have been addressed, and the new scope falls within an accredited certification scheme or a valid cooperation agreement. Certificates with expanded scopes are issued with a validity period following the current certification cycle, while existing certificates are revoked and replaced by new certificates containing the additional scope.

Reduction Scope
The scope of certification may be reduced if the client fails to meet the requirements for certain parts of its scope. The reduction must be in accordance with applicable standards.
