- Impartial audit of your management system.
- Managed audit programme and schedule.
- Clear Reporting.
- Non-Conformance trend analysis.
Scoping Internal Audits
Our team will work with you to define the scope of an effective audit programme to meet your requirements. This usually encompasses the whole management system and all activities of the organisation; however we can also limit the scope of our audits to provide a part of your internal audit programme.
We can work as part of your Audit Team providing expertise that you don’t have in-house, or covering a location where you don’t have an auditor.
Managed Audit Programmes to ISO 19011
We conduct our internal audits to ISO 19011, the standard for auditing management systems, so you can be assured that our work is thorough and to industry standards.
With the benefit of our office team to manage the programme and our experienced auditors, you are in good hands
Are your Internal Audits Conducted to ISO 19011 Guidelines?
Audit Reporting
We’ll provide a clear report detailing the audit activity and any findings, positive or negative.
Our auditors will discuss everything with you throughout the audit, so there should be no surprises in the report, and you can use the documented report during supplier or certification audits.
We also conduct a robust Report Review Process against a set of criteria including Coherence, Clarity and Confidentiality.
Non-Conformity Management
Any weaknesses our auditors find in your management system will be raised within the report as a non-conformance, which you can address through your non-conformance process.
There are several levels of internal audit findings depending on the severity and impact of the issue.
There will be enough information within the report for your team to understand the problem and find an effective corrective action, however Paalan International can also provide a consultant to advise on any of these.
