Draft updated FEMAS, TASCC and UFAS Standards for 2024 available to download
Updated Standards in draft for FEMAS, TASCC and UFAS are available to download in advance of definitive versions being published soon.
Following an extensive review process, the updated Standards for FEMAS, TASCC and UFAS have now been submitted to the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) for review.
Last year AIC Services launched industry-wide consultations on updates to these trade assurance scheme Standards, with clauses aligned to develop a common set of requirements and wording, aiding greater understanding amongst Participants.
The definitive version of each standard will be published once the UKAS review is complete. In the interim, scheme Participants may wish to view the below draft copies as they prepare for audits taking place after 1 June 2024 when the new standards are due to come into effect.
Should any changes be made to these drafts as a result of the UKAS review, these will be clearly communicated when the definitive versions are published.
