Poor internal audits are a major contributor to companies failing recertification and maintenance surveys from ISO registrars. This is particularly true for small and medium size organizations. Audits take too much time and too many staff resources. Personnel in the company do not have the skills to make audits value-added.
Some processes are specialized and require special technical audit capabilities or knowledge.
We offer a broad base of auditing support, from a single, specialized audit to performing all your internal audits. We perform value-added, technically sound audits that will help you improve processes and customer satisfaction, all while ensuring compliance with the ISO standards. However, certification brought additional customers, more work, and the breathing room was quickly consumed. And now, internal audits had to be performed according to the schedule. Before long, the audits were behind schedule.
