Internal ISO 56002 audit on innovation management
The ISO 56002 standard provides guidance for organisations that need to create an environment that promotes and supports innovation, whilst ensuring compliance with other quality standards, such as ISO 9001. This standard can be used by any organisation interested in promoting continuous improvement and innovation.
The added value of our ISO 56002 audit
Commissioning an ISO 56002 audit from EmasConsultors not only assesses your organisation’s compliance with the ISO 56002 standard and the maturity level of your innovation management system, but also provides you with:
- Integration of the Business Plan (or Corporate Plan) with the innovation management system. With our ISO audit, we help implement ISO 56002 certification tools that facilitate integration with your Business Plan, thereby aligning organisational objectives with innovation objectives.
- Increased sales and profits. Applying the observations and opportunities for improvement identified in the ISO 56002 internal audit carried out by EmasConsultors will help you identify opportunities to boost sales and reduce costs. Our ISO audit will help you make money.
- Continuous improvement. Our audit report is an excellent tool for continuous improvement through the deviations, observations and opportunities for improvement identified. Management SWOT analysis.
- Understanding your SWOT (internal Strengths and Weaknesses as well as external Threats and Opportunities) is a very useful tool for understanding the actual situation your organisation is in, enabling management to plan a strategy for the future.
Why choose us for your ISO 56002 audit?
The key factors to consider when choosing EmasConsultors to carry out your internal audit are:
- Save time. We’ll handle the audit, leaving you free to focus on what generates revenue. There’s no need to spend time training as an internal auditor or planning and carrying out the audit.
- Save money. Outsourcing the internal audit helps you save money because, thanks to the experience of a senior auditor from outside the organisation, observations and opportunities for improvement are identified that have a direct impact on the profit and loss account.
- Integrate innovation with strategy and marketing. As you will see in the audit report, we have designed the ISO 56002 internal audit so that the tools of the ISO 56002 certificate support the organisation’s Strategic Plan, Business Plan and Marketing Plan.
- Simplify documentation. With the results obtained, it will be easy for you to integrate the ISO 56002 certification documentation both with other certifications (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, etc.) and with legal requirements (Data Protection Act, Health and Safety at Work, etc.).
What should the audit take into account?
An audit against the ISO 56002 standard is a process designed to determine the extent to which the requirements of ISO 56002 are met. During an ISO 56002 certification audit, the requirements of the ISO 56002 standard itself must be assessed, as well as those defined in the documentation (manual, procedures and instructions) of the innovation management system.
An ISO 56002 audit must be a process that is:
- Systematic: The ISO audit must follow a defined methodology to facilitate its conduct and enable comparison of results across different audits.
- Independent: The auditor must be objective and impartial, independent of the audited area.
- Documented: The audit must include records and evidence of the areas verified during the audit.
- Sampling: It is necessary to review, during the audit, a significant number (not all) of records for each of the tasks included within the scope of the audit.
