Fixinc facilitates a working session that identifies and organises the documentation needed to support each clause of the ISO 22301:2019 standard. The workshop helps stakeholders understand what counts as evidence, where it can be found, and how to store or version-control it. From meeting minutes and training records to internal audit logs, this session is as much about awareness and accountability as it is about checklists.

Most accreditation gaps do not come from the absence of work but from poor documentation. Fixinc knows what external auditors need to see and how they want to see it. This approach ensures your people know how to gather, label, and store evidence in a way that is ISO-ready, setting you up for smoother audits every year after.

For organisations enrolled in the [Maintenance Program](https://docs.fixinc.io/maintenance-program.md), this workshop becomes the annual reset button for evidence management.

## Delivery Approach

The workshop follows the Plan-Do-Check-Act methodology:

1. **Plan**: Agile, first-principles planning ensures a smooth rollout of your refreshed program
2. **Do**: ISO 22301 Evidence Gathering Workshop is rolled out smoothly at your organisation
3. **Check**: Your evidence gathering process is draft until validated, this phase addresses that
4. **Act**: Your team and ours will be ready when your evidence gathering processes are activated in real-life scenarios

## Engagement Process

### Initial Consultation

- A link will be sent via email from the Advisory team with scheduling options for phone, Teams, Zoom, or in-person meetings
- Initial consultation runs 30-45 minutes to discuss objectives, answer questions, and explain delivery approach
- Proposal and quote delivered within 24 hours detailing the scope of work
- One week later, a discussion meeting is held, followed by a final quote for signature
- If not signed within five weeks, the proposal is considered inactive

### Delivery Phases

**Review and Health Check**

All evidence gathering workshops begin with a deep review of what is already in place. Benchmarks are set based on best practice and ISO standards.

**Design and Develop**

With involvement from your team as necessary, the evidence gathering component of your ISO 22301:2019 programme is built to the highest quality available.

**Validate**

Where appropriate, the new evidence gathering discipline is tested and validated. This provides tangible evidence of capability and maturity to stakeholders.

**Maintain**

The primary setback for organisations embedding resilience is momentum. A plan is built to ensure evidence gathering runs annually.
