Audit

BASTA conducts regular audits of connected companies to ensure the credibility and validate the assessments of the articles in the BASTA system. 

What is checked during the audit?

All companies that register their products in the BASTA system have agreed to be audited and have complete documentation for their assessment, and can present documentation and assessment documents in the event of an audit.

For more information, see the criteria document, template for audit report and the agreement to connect to the BASTA system.

  • Assessment and documentation for a selection of registered articles
  • That the organizational criteria's are met
  • Documents from sub-supplier used in assessment
