Standards & Systems Clinic
Build proportionate management infrastructure informed by recognised standards, Lean and Six Sigma methods without confusing implementation with certification.
Who this is designed for
- suppliers formalising operations
- organisations preparing for independent certification
- new ventures needing scalable controls
- teams fixing recurring process failure
Problems it is designed to investigate
- A policy library is disconnected from work
- Certification is treated as the purpose rather than a control system
- Processes rely on tacit knowledge
- Internal audits find documents but not causes
- Improvement activity is unprioritised

Measurement
How progress should be assessed
Measures indicate direction and implementation; they do not turn participation into certification.
What this programme is not
Market Accord does not distribute copyrighted standards, certify organisations or use the ISO logo.
Any live tender, certification, legal, financial or regulated-service requirement must be handled through the appropriate separately contracted professional route.
ACCORD control cycle
Every module passes through the same six stages.
Ask, clarify, close, operate, review and disseminate. A project can stop at any stage where evidence no longer supports proceeding.
