Frequently Asked Questions

Get instant answers to common questions about this course from our expert trainers.

What is an Anti-bribery Management System under ISO 37001?

An Anti-bribery Management System (ABMS) is a set of management system controls designed to prevent, detect, and address bribery risks. ISO 37001 specifies requirements for implementing and maintaining that system.

An ABMS is audited as a system of controls, not isolated documents.

What happens in a stage 1 and stage 2 ISO 37001 audit?

Stage 1 focuses on initiating the audit and checking readiness against requirements. Stage 2 is where on-site audit activities are performed, including executing procedures, communicating with auditees, and using test plans.

Stage 1 confirms readiness; stage 2 produces the evidence.

How do you write ISO 37001 audit findings and nonconformity reports?

Audit findings should state what was observed and how it relates to requirements. Nonconformity reports should be evidence-based and clear enough to support corrective action planning and later evaluation by the auditor.

A nonconformity is only as strong as its evidence trail.
