A structured, predictable process — from first contact to follow-up.
Every engagement follows the same disciplined sequence, so that you know exactly what to expect, when, and how findings will be documented.
Initial contact and objective clarification
You contact us with your situation — a supplier that needs assessment, an internal review requirement, or preparation ahead of a certification audit. We clarify your objective, timeline and the business context behind the request.
Scope definition
We define the precise scope of the audit together with you: the relevant standard(s), the site(s) or documentation involved, the depth of assessment required, and who will receive the resulting report.
Planning and announcement
We agree on dates, logistics and any site-access requirements with the audited organisation, and confirm the audit criteria and methodology that will be applied.
Audit execution
An experienced auditor conducts the on-site inspection and/or documentation review, gathering objective evidence: observations, records, interviews with relevant staff, and sample verification where applicable.
Findings review and closing discussion
Before leaving the site (or concluding a documentary review), we discuss preliminary findings with the responsible contacts, so there are no surprises in the final report.
Structured reporting
We issue a structured, evidence-based report: scope, methodology, detailed findings, supporting observations, and — where the engagement calls for it — a documented compliance confirmation.
Confirmation and verification reference
Where a compliance confirmation is issued, it includes a unique verification reference. An authorised recipient can verify the confirmation's authenticity and current status via the reference printed on the document.
Follow-up and corrective actions
Where findings require corrective action, we agree on a timeline for remediation and, where relevant, conduct a follow-up audit to verify that actions have been implemented effectively.
What our process does — and does not — deliver
This process results in an independent audit confirmation or compliance assessment issued by Baltic Compliance Partners. It does not constitute, and cannot be substituted for, formal certification under IFS, BRCGS, HACCP or any other GFSI-recognised scheme. Where formal certification is required, it must be obtained separately through an accredited certification body.
Timelines that respect your operational reality.
Most single-site audits are scoped, scheduled and completed within two to four weeks from first contact, depending on site availability and the complexity of the standard involved. Multi-site or multi-country programmes are planned on a tailored timeline agreed with you in advance.
We aim to issue the structured report within ten working days of audit completion, unless a shorter turnaround has been agreed for your engagement.
