Key Benefit

WCH's approach ensures simplicity (easy-to-use systems), effectiveness (certification success), and sustainability (long-term compliance with minimal external reliance).


Why WCH's Approach Stands Out

The decision of which consulting firm you select may have lasting effects.  It is worthwhile taking this into account during the planning process.

For Implementation Projects: 

 

WCH recognizes the importance of creating effective and efficient systems that aren’t overly demanding and that are designed to help, rather than hinder, a business’ bottom line.  
 

• WCH supports a simple approach to compliance?  

​

• WCH promotes clear, concise procedures that are practical and easy to follow—avoiding overly complex, wordy documentation that can limit operational flexibility.

​

• WCH helps your company create a useful manual that documents key information about company stakeholders, responsibilities, sequence, and interaction of processes, etc.

​

• Management System records will be maintained in a consistent and accessible manner. Whenever reasonable and possible, they will be housed in a centralized, easy-to-access location to prevent loss, misplacement, or accidental deletion. Storing records with individual owners or in isolated locations will be avoided to ensure reliability and long-term accessibility.

​​

• WCH has been here for over 20 years and will continue to be here in years to come for post-certification support if your team has any questions or needs additional advice.

 

• WCH takes responsibility for project management, project transparency, and project accountability. A WCH Project Manager is assigned to each site and is responsible for:
  •    Facilitating each procedure / process modification review session,
  •    Coordinating the selection and development of instructions, as necessary,
  •    Maintaining an Action Item List for the project and reviewing the list with your team as the project progresses,
  •    Providing input to assure compliance with the standard(s),
  •    Establishing and ensuring project transparency, and
  •    Maintaining a Dashboard which will be made available for Real Time viewing by authorized personnel.
   

• WCH provides quick communication via email, text, and phone responses during the project, even between planned activities.

For Internal Audits performed by WCH:

​

WCH partners with our clients and becomes part of the client organization during the Internal Audit.  We are your friends and want you to succeed.  Whenever possible, if there is an Opportunity for Improvement, WCH will provide suggestions for implementing effective solutions that aren't overly burdensome to your organization.  In some cases, WCH may be able to advise and help during the Internal Audit to quickly address any concerns, thereby avoiding the need to record Opportunities.  Spending time with WCH during an Internal Audit is a great way to prepare for a Registration or Surveillance Audit and provides an opportunity to ask questions and clarify concerns in a friendly environment.
