Approach to Verification

process is a team experience. During any audit the organization
is strongly encouraged to voice any questions, concerns, or differences.
We encourage you to contact any AWM registered company to seek
their perspective on this cooperative atmosphere. Contact information
of our registered clients may be found at www.awm.net.

consulting which helps ensure the highest level of reliability
in our verifications. In addition, AWM does not utilize any contracted
verifiers. This practice provides a high level of continuity
in the performance of verifications, allowing our clients to
prepare for a consistent experience.
