The credentialing Audit

The accreditation audit is an objective evaluation of a company’s accreditation process and is designed to help an organisation understand the impact of their current practices on security, safety and operational efficiency. The outcome is a written report by one of our accreditation specialists and will highlight any areas for improvement to ensure that future procedures are following best-practice guidelines.

Areas to be evaluated include:

  • The big picture

    Who is being accredited and why? How are access zones defined and how does access control work?

  • The accreditation team

  • Badge production
    What is the badge design? How are badges printed and distributed?

  • What happens to accreditation
    When venue use changes, new tenants host events, or multi-venue competitions take place

What is the benefit of an audit?

When accreditation is done badly, the consequences can be grave. Accreditation managers are tearing their hair out grappling with yet another spreadsheet of staff from the catering contractor. Background checks aren’t made on workers. Temporary staff roam freely because access zones aren’t used. And badges are easily forged. Security is compromised, operations is inefficient, legal requirements are ignored, and the accreditation team is stressed.

But a robust end-to-end accreditation procedure will stop all of that.
