Filling in a section

Answering questions, attaching evidence, reference standards and stale sections.

  • Answer the questions and select Save section. Nothing is saved until you do.
  • Questions left on Not answered are shown as not declared, never as "No". Not applicable counts as answered.
  • The Attach evidence link under a question (Manage evidence once files are attached) opens the Evidence Vault with that claim already selected.
  • Many sections show a light box of reference standards: questionnaires and frameworks that buyers in your industry commonly ask about, such as CAIQ, SIG, ISO 27001 or ISO 9001. The links go to the official source. If you've already completed one, upload it as evidence instead of retyping the answers. The full list by industry is in Standard questionnaires & frameworks.
  • A section that hasn't been updated for 12 months is marked Stale. Review it and save it again to confirm it's still current.
  • An optional section can be removed with Clear section. It goes back to the optional list; its evidence files are kept.
  • Some sections suggest values from other sections, such as the countries you operate in, to save typing.
  • Corporate & Entity Identity is also where you upload your company logo.
