Buying in an experienced employee is certainly an effective route forward and will certainly short circuit the DIY timeframes. However, the killer question you probably you need to ask yourself is; once the job is complete, the registration certificate is sitting proudly in your foyer, do you really need a full time, and usually expensive, management system standards manager?
In addition, some experienced systems managers have been known to develop systems that become an ever growing empire all of their own, deliberately building complexity into the system in order to perpetuate their own kingdom!
Who’d have thought?!
