Audit Fees

Please contact them for more information about the cost of the audit and certification fees. Also, if you have any questions about Control Union’s billing procedures, please call or email the contact person above.

Audit Reports

Control Union will send you your audit report directly and not through the auditor. Turnaround of the audit report is completed within 30 business days of the audit. You should not expect your report and final score sooner than that. If it takes longer than 30 business days to receive your audit report, please contact Control Union directly (see “Control Union Services”).

Certificates

Control Union will send you your certificate once you have passed the audit. Please contact Control Union if you receive an incorrect certificate, have not yet received your certificate, need a hard copy, etc.

Complaints, Appeals and Disputes

Following the certification process, Control Union has an electronic satisfaction survey on their website: http://peru.controlunion.com/en/terms-conditions
