SWOT analysis is not required by the standard, but it is useful tool to help organization determine the context and identify risks and opportunities. For more information, see: How to identify the context of the organization in ISO 9001:2015 https://advisera.com/9001academy/knowledgebase/how-to-identify-the-context-of-the-organization-in-iso-90012015/

2. As our company got certification under ISO 9001:2008 in 2016 and there is a revision now so next year audit will happen and the certification will change to ISO 9001:2015. Correct.

It will depend on how you arrange it with the certification body, if you want to have surveillance audit according to the previous version so be it. In my opinion, it is better to have certification audit against the new version. Anyway, the certification body cannot made this decision without your organization agreeing to it.

3. My next audit is due in Aug'2018. The surveillance audit will be based on 9001:2008 or 9001:2015. Please advise.

Again, this depends on how you will arrange the audit with the certification body, but it doesn't make too much sense on having the 2018 audit based on 2008 version of the standard since after September 2018, ISO 9001:2008 certificates will seize to be valid.
