How does the Compliance tool work?

The Compliance tool is activated for both parts of the standard by default. You can turn it on and off at the top right via the ‘More’ button. You can record the status of each paragraph and use process labels to indicate in which of the business processes the requirement is embedded.

  • Then download a report with an overview of all action points, compliance statuses and the link between the paragraphs and your business processes.

Status + history

Per paragraph, via the ‘Options’ button, you can assign status and process labels. You can choose to manually give all paragraphs a status or set everything to ‘Non-compliant’ at once (via ‘More’). You can then adjust them to the correct status, including providing a comment. All requirements in NEN 7510 have been identified by the standards committee.

  • At any time you can see how many requirements you have identified and what status they have at the top of the online version.

Process labels

In addition to status, you can also assign one or more process labels. This allows you to group requirements by process and easily identify them later in reporting. Linking labels to your processes gives you a complete overview of how the standards are embedded in your organisation. You can decide what the label is called and whether it links to anything.
