There's only a few weeks to go until we expect to publish awards to CHIC’s new Compliance Audit Framework so it should be accessible for our members during November. This framework provides access to organisations that will deliver comprehensive audit services for the independent assurance of its members ongoing operations.
CHIC’s ambition is to provide an environment where members can access a range of internal Policy Compliance and Site Portfolio Audits along with Site Contractor Assurance Audits. The audit process is an integral part of ensuring that all building safety services and works are completed in accordance with a defined scope/specification. These must meet the member’s own requirements whilst also complying with all legislative and regulatory standards.
Independent audits will assess the key legal requirements and site conditions to ensure that company working procedures are being implemented correctly and in line with current regulations and operational best practice.
Suppliers will work alongside any members compliance team to provide technical support, quality assurance, financial tracking and control, compliance reporting (where required) and IT and administration support for any systems provided.
Our national framework is split into the following workstreams:
Lot 1 – Asbestos Management Auditing
Lot 2 – Commercial Gas Auditing
Lot 3 – Domestic Gas Auditing
Lot 4 – Electrical Safety Auditing
Lot 5 – Fire Safety Auditing
Lot 6 – Lifting Equipment Auditing
Lot 7 – Mechanical and Electrical Auditing
Lot 8 – Water Hygiene Auditing
