Slide 153 of 262

Basics

• I want to remind you that choosing a registrar is like choosing a life partner. While it may not be ‘Until death do us part’, it is quite close.

• The intent herein is not for every question to be asked, but rather as a sort of check list to jog your thoughts with respect to YOUR company’s requirements. - Do remember that anything not discussed early is subject to interpretation later!

• Some important starters:

  Who (e.g.: RAB) is the registrar approved by?
  
  Will the registrar provide client names and references?
  How many Man days and how many Auditors? (Registration vs Surveillance)
  How do they conduct surveillance visits? Scheduled or unscheduled?

Note: There is some redundancy of questions within this presentation.
