Our Simple 5-Step COACH Process
From our first conversation to closing day, we guide you through every step.
01
C – Clarity
Before any software is installed, we define the "Rules of the Road."
02
O – Operations
You cannot automate a mess. This is where we do the "dirty work" of cleaning up your workflows.
03
A – Abilities
A contact center is only as good as its people. We focus on training that turns staff into experts.
04
C – Care
This is the heart of ISO 18295. We ensure that the "Human Touch" is never lost, even in a digital world.
05
H – High Standards
Finally, we make sure your excellence is "audit-ready" and defensible.


What Does The AI Readiness Audit Exclude?
The "Guts" of the AI Code
The auditor isn't going to look at your Python script or check the math behind your Large Language Model (LLM). They don't care if you're using OpenAI, Google, or your own custom build. They care about the output—is the AI giving the customer the right answer according to your agency’s rules?
General IT Security (Cybersecurity
While the audit asks if you have a way to keep data private, it doesn't do a deep dive into your firewalls or server encryption. For that, you’d look at a different standard (like ISO 27001). ISO 18295 contact center assumes your IT team already has the lights on and the hackers out; it focuses on the service being provided.
Hardware Maintenance
The audit won't check if your servers are dusty or if your backup generators work. It’s not a facility or hardware inspection. It’s a "process and people" inspection.
Direct Financial Auditing
An ISO 18295 contact center lead auditor won't look at your bank accounts or how you pay your vendors. They only care about the budgeting for customer service quality. They want to see that you’ve put enough money and people toward the project to make sure it doesn't fail the citizens.
Why these exclusions matter for AI
By excluding the "techy" stuff, the audit forces the CIO to focus on the Human Element. If your AI fails, it’s rarely because the code was bad; it’s usually because the rules you gave the AI were confusing, or you didn't have a human ready to take over when the AI got stuck. ISO 18295 catches those "human" mistakes before they happen.
Because it focuses on organizational readiness, it intentionally leaves out the "heavy lifting" of technical engineering. Here is what an ISO 18295 contact center audit will typically exclude (additional exclusions may apply):
