Details of Nonconformity

Statement of Nonconformity: OBSERVATION (rolled forward from CAR-2025-001): The standing weekly Director / HSQE compliance call covers operational and stakeholder context informally and effectively, but there is no brief written capture of context updates between the formal 6-monthly APP_01 reviews, so the auditor cannot sample it.

Planned Actions

Containment Action(s), including correction, with supporting completion date(s):

  1. Add a 2-line "context updates" item to the standing weekly-call notes (30/06/2026)
  2. Continue the 6-monthly APP_01 formal review unchanged

Root Cause

Primary Cause: Context monitoring runs through an effective informal forum (the weekly call) but was never given a lightweight written-capture mechanism. Contributing Factors: Small-company habits — context discussed verbally, not minuted.

Proposed Corrective Action

  1. Implement a light-touch monthly context capture in the weekly-call notes.
  2. First evidence: the May 2026 weekly-call notes, reviewed at the next standing call.

Verification

  1. [ ] Written context-update line present in weekly-call notes from May 2026.
  2. [ ] 6-monthly APP_01 formal review confirmed unchanged.

Recommendations

  1. Keep the capture deliberately light — two lines, not a report.
  2. Roll the monthly notes into the September Management Review context input.

Feedback & Acknowledgments

Raised by the 2026 internal-audit cycle (IA202601). Owner and target agreed at the standing weekly Director / HSQE compliance call.
