On the day of audit, an auditor will need to have sufficient resources to get their job done with as little disruption to the company as possible but also in an efficient and effective manner:
Please review the audit schedule and plan as much as possible to have relevant staff available. Where a person cannot be available please nominate a second person where practical. If staff representatives are not available on the day of audit this sometimes extends an audit length as the scope of the audit must be covered in order for the audit to be completed.
If there is a spare office or desk, it would be useful to provide this working space to the auditor.
If your system has electronically held records and processes are managed electronically, the auditor will need to have access to your electronic systems therefore access, including passwords as necessary, may need to be organized.
Please ensure auditors are made aware of the personal facilities such as restrooms and administrative facilities such as photocopier, internet access, etc.
