# Post-Audit Improvement Plan > An audit is a milestone, not the finish line. This module turns ISO 22301 audit results into a clear, actionable improvement plan that strengthens your resilience year after year. *This content is available in full at: https://www.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso223012019-postaudit-resilience-improvement-plan* Fixinc reviews audit results, whether from an internal process or external accreditation, and develops a focused resilience improvement plan. The service helps prioritise actions, allocate responsibilities, and link gaps to relevant disciplines. Plans are synchronised into the [Maintenance Program](https://docs.fixinc.io/maintenance-program.md) so accreditation is used to drive measurable improvements rather than simply maintained. Audit insights are transformed into a roadmap that is realistic, linked to the organisation's risk landscape, and aligned to operational requirements. Whether an organisation has just passed or missed certification, the service sharpens resilience in a way that makes sense for people and stakeholders. ## Delivery Approach The ISO 22301 Post-Audit Resilience Improvement Plan follows a four-step methodology: 1. **Plan**: Agile, first-principles planning ensures smooth rollout of the refreshed programme 2. **Do**: Implementation is rolled out smoothly across the organisation 3. **Check**: Draft plans are validated through testing and review 4. **Act**: Teams are prepared when improvement plans are activated in real-world situations ## Related Disciplines - [BIA Review](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso22301aligned-bia-review.md): Business impact analysis alignment with ISO 22301 requirements - [Document Control](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso223012019-documented-information-review.md): Review of documented information for audit compliance ## Engagement Process ### Initial Consultation - A link is sent via email from the Advisory team with time selection options for phone, Teams, Zoom, or in-person meetings - 30-45 minute discussion to understand objectives using prepared questions, sharing delivery approach, and Q&A - Proposal and quote delivered within 24 hours detailing scope of work - One week later, proposal discussion followed by final quote for signing within 10 minutes - If not signed within five weeks, it is assumed timing is not suitable ### Delivery Phases **Review and Health Check**: All implementations start with a deep review of existing arrangements. Benchmarks are set based on best practice and ISO standards. **Design and Develop**: With appropriate involvement from the client team, the discipline is built to the highest quality available as part of the ISO 22301 programme. **Validate**: Where appropriate, the new discipline is tested and validated. This provides tangible evidence of capability and maturity to stakeholders. **Maintain**: A plan is built to ensure the improvement plan runs annually, addressing the common setback of lost momentum in embedded resilience programmes. ## Additional ISO 22301 Disciplines The following disciplines complement and expand the Post-Audit Improvement Plan: - [ISO 22301 Gap Assessment](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso-22301-gap-assessment.md): Detailed view of compliance status mapped against every clause, obligation, and best-practice requirement - [ISO22301-Aligned BIA Review](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso22301aligned-bia-review.md): Review of existing business impact analysis aligned to ISO structure and audit criteria - [BCMS Policy and Framework Review](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/bcms-policy-and-framework-review.md): Review and sharpening of BCMS policy and framework aligned to ISO 22301 - [Evidence Gathering Workshop](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso223012019-evidence-gathering-workshop.md): Guidance on evidence collection, documentation, and structuring for auditors - [Internal Audit Support](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso223012019-internal-audit-support.md): Structure, independence, and clear path to action for internal audit processes - [Risk and Opportunity Assessment](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso223012019-risk-and-opportunity-assessment.md): Assessment of risks, capitalisation on strengths, and prioritisation of actions - [Audit Readiness Walkthrough](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso233012019-audit-readiness-walkthrough.md): Preparation of evidence, response structure, and assessor trust building - [Corrective Action Implementation Support](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso223012019-corrective-action-implementation-support.md): Implementation of corrective actions quickly, clearly, and sustainably - [Documented Information Review](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso223012019-documented-information-review.md): Review of documented information for structure, control, and clarity ## Frequently Asked Questions **How do we know when the activity is fully effective?** Success is validated through exercises, engagement, and outcomes. If the effort drives action, conversation, and continuous use, it is working. **What kind of outcomes can we expect?** Clients typically gain clarity, leadership alignment, and a measurable shift in preparedness regardless of their starting point. **Does this link to other services or tools?** Yes, this discipline often feeds into other services like planning, validation, or digital tools. It is designed to integrate rather than sit in a silo. **What does the discipline involve when delivered by Fixinc?** The discipline is built to be clear, structured, and aligned with the Tungsten Diamond lifecycle. It is tailored to programme maturity and backed by real-world application. **How is this different from traditional approaches?** Unlike templated models, this work adapts to the client's sector, stakeholders, and risk profile. It is hands-on, flexible, and always validated. --- **View this page online:** https://www.fixinc.io/disciplines/iso223012019-postaudit-resilience-improvement-plan For program inquiries: [Contact Fixinc](https://www.fixinc.io/contact) | info@fixinc.org | +64 800 349 462
