What is a Company information Profile (CIP)?
This is an online questionnaire that covers over 330 pieces of management information in 13 topical sections including finance; health & safety; insurance; management procedures; customer care; human resources, equal opportunities, training, quality assurance and technical capability. Many of the questions just require simple yes/no answers and guidance notes are adjacent to the questions. Completing this electronic ‘Company Information Profile’ (CIP) may appear at first to be a lengthy procedure. In fact, its completion is straightforward and may be undertaken in manageable ‘chunks’. You are not obliged to complete it at one sitting – you can save your work at regular intervals (e.g. having completed a section) and return/reopen it later to complete further sections. However, it is recommended that you familiarise yourself with the whole CIP before starting to complete it.
