Internal audits are often conducted by qualified or certified internal auditors with the purpose of assessing if the organization’s current processes and practices are aligned with the fulfillment of the ISO standard’s requirements. Management reviews, on the other hand, are held by the top management to gauge how well the management system is performing based on the desired results of the objectives.
Both offer the chance for organizations to explore the performance of their current management systems, pinpoint areas for improvement, and proactively address issues for continuous improvement.
