Prior to providing support services, the diagnosis stage (whether in the form of an inventory, a regulatory compliance audit, or an operational or organisational efficiency audit) results in an assessment report in which any potential non-compliant components are flagged and supported by recommendations for the action to be taken.

Recommendations, whether following on from the diagnosis stage or not, are always based on applicable regulations and recommendations as well as operational efficiency).

Sunnikan's training sessions are based on the following three themes:

• Legislation, regulations, standards, norms and recommendations
• Quality, process and risk management procedures
• Quality management system validation

Implementing a quality management system results in drawing up a set of standard operational procedures.

Sunnikan drafts or updates standard operational procedures adapted to the context, area of activity and size of the department in question.

These procedures are designed to be compliant with all applicable framework documentation (regulations, ICH recommendations, directives, potentially ISO 9001 standard, etc.) and, where relevant, include all the necessary requirements with respect to personal data protection, IT system validation, etc.
