How long does the transition take?
The kit sequences the work across 120 days to the planning date, then the first 90 days after publication. A firm that already follows the Basic profile can compress the early steps. A firm with no process assets should expect the full window and should not pretend otherwise.

The kit sequences the work across 120 days to the planning date, then the first 90 days after publication. A firm that already follows the Basic profile can compress the early steps. A firm with no process assets should expect the full window and should not pretend otherwise.
The plan starts with the decision record and the scope note, then the comparison, the templates, the roles and the evidence index, then a dry run of the assessor's sample. A small firm that already has project plans and test records is mostly re labelling and filling gaps. A firm with no process assets should expect the full window and should not pretend otherwise. The plan is a sequence, not a promise.
Where the answer stops
This answer is written from the public ISO record and the register on this site. The FDIS body is not public, so the answer does not quote it or state a draft clause. It is not legal advice, does not certify and does not decide a question for a particular firm or system.
If the answer turns on a fact about your firm, use the free check or read the practice that names the evidence.
