Report review is the bottleneck before the certification decision.

FSC and PEFC chain of custody is product certification, with bodies accredited under ISO/IEC 17065:2012. Before the decision, the standard requires a review of the report, under the review requirements of ISO/IEC 17065 (7.5). Reports fail on determining the output claim, applying the percentage or credit system, traceability between steps, the control of non-certified material and consistency with the sales documents. The reviewer confirms every finding is tied to the right requirement before the decision.
