This NOT a certification audit, but a compliance audit, or '๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ด๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐'.
- A BRCGS integrity visit will last one day regardless of the size of the site
- If it is going to happen to your site it will usually be within 3 months of your certifying audit
- You will get very little notice, sometimes none at all (13% compliance audits were unannounced in 2023)
- You could get new NCs (and your CB could get some too!)
- You have a contractual obligation to deal with those NCs just the way you would with your normal CB audit NCs, although, these new ones will not affect your site grade
- BRCGS aims to complete integrity visits on about 0.5% of certified sites each year
