Management System Diagnostic Audit - know your real state in 3-5 days
Analysis of your management system: we quickly identify what works, where critical gaps exist, what risks may affect certification, and what to do next. No 'big project' assumptions - just a concrete action plan.
What a diagnostic audit is
A rapid assessment of the real state of your management system: gaps, risks, and an action plan in 3-5 days.
System analysis
Assessment of your current state against ISO 9001, ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, or another target standard.
System logic check
Whether processes, documents, and records are aligned and functioning as one system.
Gap identification
What must be closed before the audit and what can be postponed without major risk.
Decision baseline
A prioritized implementation or certification-preparation plan.
When diagnostics is the best starting point
Analysis gives a clear picture and clear priorities without unnecessary assumptions or oversized projects.

Planning certification for the first time
You need to understand real scope, priorities, and required evidence level before the first audit.
Your system cannot keep up with changes
Processes, team, equipment, or product portfolio changed, and now the actual state must be aligned with documentation.
Audit in 2-3 months
There is a risk of insufficient records and evidence, while there is no time left for large-scale implementation.
You need a prioritized action roadmap
You want concrete next steps, not general recommendations: what, when, and by whom.
What you get after diagnostics
The output is not generic advice, but concrete artifacts for decisions and planning.

Detailed report
Report is provided as a detailed checklist
Gap register
A clear list of nonconformities with criticality levels: critical / major / minor.
Risk map
Where the system may fail during audit or operations: risk zone -> consequences -> priority.
Corrective action plan
Concrete roadmap: what to do -> who is responsible -> deadline.
How a diagnostic audit is conducted
Four analysis stages that provide a realistic system picture, reveal gaps, and form an action plan.
Discuss diagnosticsWe define diagnostic boundaries: sites, products, processes, supply chain, and target standard. This avoids 'checking everything' and focuses the review on what is critical.
We review policies, procedures, instructions, logs, protocols, monitoring records, batch traceability, and nonconformity handling. We assess regularity and quality of execution evidence.
We interview key roles (production, quality, procurement, logistics) and compare 'documented process' with actual practice. This reveals real gaps.
We document results in a detailed checklist, visualization of the management system compliance level overall and for individual processes, corrective action plan and opportunities for improvement

These mistakes reduce analysis quality and delay certification readiness.

Excessive preparation for the audit
Showing the best side is counterproductive — the auditor should assess the real state of the system as it is.
Hiding the real state of affairs
Concealing problems during the audit reduces the value of diagnostics and prevents identifying real gaps.
Diagnostics after all repairs are completed
Auditing after all changes are done means it is too late to adjust; diagnostics should be done in advance.
Relying solely on own knowledge
An independent view from a competent auditor reveals problems that the enterprise no longer notices.
Why clients choose our diagnostics
Benefits of Ekontrol analysis compared with internal checks or 'free' checklists.
Independent perspective
We notice what internal teams often stop seeing because of daily routine.
Specific comments
Detailed explanation of international standards requirements, not generic advice: matrix, register, risk map, and deadline-based action plan.
Fast result
3-5 days instead of weeks. You get a practical plan and can start execution immediately.
Diagnostic feedback
What companies say after completing analysis before certification.
I have repeatedly taken training at Ekocontrol and recently had the experience of cooperation during an audit from Fozzy at Sunny Food LLC. What I would like to note is a high level of competence, objectivity, and a fair approach to process evaluation. The audit was constructive and professional, with clear explanations and useful recommendations. I would especially like to note that the Ekocontrol auditor not only checks but also shares practical experience — there is really something to learn. We recommend them as a reliable partner in consulting, training, and enterprise certification.
