Compliance

Within this chapter the Compliance Norms can be added.

  1. In our example we have ISO9001, NEN7510-2, a Company specific norm and HKZ norm.
  2. You may add as much Norms as you like and add the requirements to each norm. Click the +(plus) icon to add a Norm
  3. The + in the requirements will open up the underlying sub,
  4. The - will collapse it again
  5. In case you made a mistake in the order of any requirement, simply grab the grey ≡ part of the line and drag it to the desired position. Each requirement can consist of chapters and subchapters up to 4 levels deep.
  6. From this screen you can add, edit, delete both the norms as well as the requirements.
  7. The dots to each requirement will get a color to indicate the compliance status to each requirement. This layered structure has a waterfall logic behind it so the top level requirement will inherit a status from a sub level requirement. So even when the tree is in collapsed view, you can imideately see the compliance status throughout the selected norm.
    Orange -> Fail. Occurs when an underlying requirement has a status Fail, Missing Process or Non Compliant.
    Purple -> Missing process. Occurs when a requirement has the switch require process set to yes, but no process is linked to the requirement
    Blue -> Pass. Occurs when: if all others are not true
    Light grey -> No process required. Occurs when the applicable switch at the requirement is set to no
    Dark grey -> Not applicable. Occurs when the applicable switch at the requirement is set to no
    Red -> Not compliant. Occurs when there is an open Issue and/or an audit result registered. When an underlying process has an issue which is linked to multiple requirements, all requirements linked to that process will be marked non compliant.
  8. For each requirement the detailed description is shown and in case processes are related the linked processes are shown also.
    Clicking on the process-link will open the details of that linked process.
  9. Open issues related to this requirement will also be shown to this detailed screen so they are tracked easily.
  10. Relevant (open) Risk Treatments are also shown here for follow up.
