Confidentiality & Impartiality

Bob will not be mentioning specific clients due to

the many layered Confidentiality Agreements that

are in place, and to which he is a party.

All audits are conducted on an impartial basis

with the shared objective of achieving a continual

improvement to the Clients' Management Systems.

Audits in turn are subject to audit by JAS ANZ.
