Are CQC Registration and CQC the same framework, just showing twice?
Are CQC Registration and CQC the same framework, just showing twice?
No. Registration is the one-off process of becoming a CQC-registered provider, and its tasks stop at Setup, Policies, People and Organisation. CQC is the ongoing framework you’re assessed against once registered, with substantially more requirements. Expect both enabled together. See Frameworks: Overview.
Can I turn on a framework myself?
Can I turn on a framework myself?
No. Assuric sets which frameworks are enabled for your workspace. Get in touch if you need one added. To show an assurance on your Trust Centre without tracking it here, such as an external certificate, use a custom Trust Centre framework instead. Assuric switches custom frameworks on when you ask. See Frameworks: Overview and Choosing what to publish.
Which frameworks do I have to repeat every year?
Which frameworks do I have to repeat every year?
Cyber Essentials and DSPT. A Cyber Essentials certificate lasts 12 months, so you fill in the questionnaire again as a renewal. DSPT publishes a new toolkit version each year, and you submit against it again. See Frameworks: Overview.
If DSPT or DTAC is revised, do I lose my progress?
If DSPT or DTAC is revised, do I lose my progress?
No. Framework updates carry your progress across automatically. Your existing progress and gaps roll over rather than starting from zero. See Frameworks: Overview.
Why does ISO 9001 keep the same year in its name, when DSPT's version changes?
Why does ISO 9001 keep the same year in its name, when DSPT's version changes?
ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 27001 and ISO 14971 each carry a fixed published edition year, like ISO 9001:2015. DSPT, DTAC and Cyber Essentials instead name their current version, for example DSPT v9 (26/27), which changes when the framework updates. Your progress carries forward automatically. See Frameworks: Overview.
Is DCB0160 tracked as its own framework?
Is DCB0160 tracked as its own framework?
No. DCB0160 is a real standard, but it isn’t tracked as its own framework in Assuric today. See Clinical Safety: Overview.
