Covid-19 update
Due to the travel and workplace attendance restrictions caused by Covid-19, SAS audit teams continue to have difficulties in performing and planning on-site audits. GSMA and the SAS auditing companies have developed alternative options that some sites can pursue to gain or maintain certification, depending on which scheme they are participating in (SAS-UP, SAS-SM) and where they are in the certification process.
These options include:
- Temporary extensions of certification (following remote assessment) for sites seeking renewal of existing certification (for SAS-SM and SAS-UP)
- Remote audits (for SAS-SM audits and some SAS-UP site and activity types)
- Hybrid audits (for SAS-UP renewal and repeat audits)
Details are available in the SAS Covid-19 Policy and Methodology Variation documents here.
Certification for affected sites is highlighted with relevant notes in the tables below. In addition, some sites have declared to GSMA that they have temporarily implemented business continuity measures in response to Covid-19 that affects their compliance with SAS. Details are being reviewed with the SAS auditors to ensure that compensating controls are being applied. These sites are highlighted (with Note #2) in the tables below.
New SAS applicants or participating sites are invited to contact sas@gsma.com with any questions or to pursue the available options.
