We are up for ISO 14000 renewal and will upgrade to the new standard sometime in April next year. I was curious how long companies have kept their same auditor? On our Quality side TS requires us to change auditors every 3 years. We like our 14000 auditor and have already experienced a few bad ones. Can we request keeping him or is there a requirement to change? Thanks.

There is no "requirement" to change. If he is effective, keep him/her. If he is too comfortable, it might be time to change?
