is.evaluation.notesThis is an internal confidential study comissioned by ASI. We include a link to their press release summarizing the study, the full study can be obtained from ASI if needed.
is.evaluation.quotes"Increased rigor: a 77% increase in non-conformities raised by CABs against CHs wasobserved in correlation to ASI's presence, an effect which was prevalent even beyondassessments witnessed by ASI."
is.evaluation.quotes"Remedial actions by CABs: the study demonstrated a correlation between ASI'spresence in Chile and the implementation of remedial actions by CABs. These actionsincluded: implementation of new training activities, suspension of auditors, correctionsto reports and databases, changes in management, new stakeholder consultation processes, and improvement of auditing procedures."
is.evaluation.quotes"Certain results of the study allow for a range of interpretations. One such factor is thelength of audits: the study concluded that ASI's presence in Chile correlates to anincrease in the number of auditing days budgeted by CABs. This implies morestringent oversight by CABs and more time for stakeholder engagement, but alsohigher cost to certification clients."
