INTERNATIONAL ACCREDITATION CENTER
Understanding a scope extension
A new activity must be compared with what the current scope covers.

Start from the published scope.
Identify the entity, the reference, the status and the activities covered. Describe the difference between that scope and the activity to be added.
Specify what changes.
A change may affect methods, sectors, products, sites or conditions. Relate that change to the relevant responsibilities and resources.
Consult the responsible entity.
The conditions for examining an extension belong to the responsible scheme and body. This guide is technical information and does not constitute an offer of accreditation extension by IAC.
This material helps you interpret information and prepare an inquiry. Service and assessment conditions must be confirmed for the relevant programme.
