First move
This control is evidenced by people and documents, not systems. Put the document under version control with an owner and review date, and log each review as a record with reviewer and date. Do not try to automate it.
Common gaps auditors find
- Lighting installed but never tested, so batteries have failed
- Coverage stops at corridors and omits equipment rooms occupied by staff
- Maintenance handled by a landlord with no evidence provided to the organization
