SGS United Kingdom Ltd
SGS, as the world's largest body for inspection, assessment and
certification, works in partnership with thousands of government
departments around the globe and over 300 UK public sector clients. All of this experience
has been brought together to help you in your journey to Charter Mark, by
demystifying the process and assisting you at every step of the way:
If you choose SGS:
-
Expertise is provided from 30 offices based in England, Northern Ireland,
Scotland and Wales, enabling us to react quickly to your requirements and
offer you a truly local service.
-
Charter Mark applicants are offered a flexible approach to assessment,
allowing us to tailor our service to your particular needs.
-
We believe that getting to understand your organisation is vital at an
early stage. Therefore we offer applicants a visit by one of our
dedicated Charter Mark Team Members as a first step on the path to
gaining Charter Mark. The visit is free of charge and enables us to
advise the best assessment method for your organisation. In addition you
can apply on-line, by fax or by post.
-
For small to medium size applicants we are able to minimise the amount of
effort required in producing the application pack by putting greater
emphasis on the site visit.
-
Your client care manager will ensure a worry-free path to Charter Mark.
We will send you a detailed proposal outlining the SGS fees for the
assessment. These fees are presented in a clear and precise document -
there will be no hidden fees.
-
As a large national organisation, with experience in developing
assessment processes within complex organisations, SGS is well suited to
help larger applicants develop bespoke corporate programmes.
-
The on-site assessment concludes with a closing meeting at which the
assessor will let you know if you are being recommended for Charter Mark.
-
We facilitate integration with ISO9001 and other national standards
during implementation and assessment.
-
Applicants opting for the SGS approach will also gain access to the SGS
Charter Mark community, a unique public sector forum to facilitate the
dissemination of the best practice and guidance.
-
A full guide to the SGS Charter Mark assessment approach is available
from our website.
