The support you need...

 

When making the investment to become certified, some of you are entering unfamiliar territory. You may be overwhelmed by the fact that while learning how to fully understand the certification process, you must simultaneously continue to successfully run your business.

 

ConformanceWare® is designed to demystify this process and put you at ease. To ensure first time success, ConformanceWare® provides the kind of support you expect to go along with it.

 

ConformanceWare® includes three distinct levels of consulting support. With it, you receive your choice of support services from a management system expert combined with a fully functional MS all in one package. To get you up and running quickly, we apply our Accelerated Integration Method (AIM) to offer you the following affordable programs:

 

ConformanceWare® - AIM Program

ConformanceWare® - AIM Program Plus

ConformanceWare® - AIM Program Premium

 

Each AIM Program option is intensively designed to have your ConformanceWare® MS configured, customized and ready for implementation within 30 business days or less.

 

Every AIM Plus and AIM Premium option extends additional services to include varying degrees of Internal Audit Facilitation, Management Review, and Stage One and Stage Two certification body audit assistance. You can also mix and match these additional services to suit your needs and budget.

 

To eliminate travel costs, MS consultation is conducted by a ConformanceWare® Integration Specialist (CIS) using WebEx for live interaction when holding workshops to exchange information, review and finalize system documentation, and plan for MS roll-out and implementation.
