Cost of the compliance audit

To carry out a compliance audit, the organisation presenting the candidate tool must pay the auditors' fees (external auditor and ABC auditor).

This cost is presented in the annex to the partnership agreements used to govern compliance audits and compliance renewal audits.

Since these audits may concern both commercial and general-purpose tools or sector-specific, internal tools or tools with specific scopes, it has been decided that, despite potential differences in the complexity of the technical aspects to be verified, the costs of a compliance audit and a compliance renewal audit will remain the same for all candidate tools.
