If, after 6 months from completion

If, after 6 months from completion of the Stage 2 audit, it has not been possible to obtain sufficient evidence of thisimplementation, another Stage 2 audit must be carried out to continue with the certification procedure; the costs ofthis supplementary activity are at the expense of the Organization.Verification that the Corrections and Corrective Actions relating to the minor Non-Conformities have beenimplemented, is generally carried out during the next audit.If the Organization forgets to send IMQ a suitable plan of corrections and corrective actions or, where requested,evidence of their implementation, IMQ can suspend the certification (see par. 8.1 below).For the recommendations, there is no need to send corrective actions to IMQ; during the next audit, the Organizationis requested to provide evidence that these recommendations have been taken into consideration, or justify anydecision to not take any action.
