As I posted earlier in this thread (1st page I think), we had a re-reg audit coming up. Well, it arrived and we did well. However, we did have 8 "Areas of Concern" or in old terminology - minors. He was very impressed with our system overall, but, his findings were related to trying to get us to "the next level" of our system.
Basically, our system is in place - we have excellent examples of preventative and corrective actions etc. But, he found gaps that MAY lead to issues in the future or MAY prevent us for getting to the next level.
He basically told us that as our system matures they look more intensely at the system and expect more out of the system. This doesn't mean more "Majors" but we can expect more Minors and OFI's to show us where there are gaps in our system or areas where we may be missed something during an improvement effort.
I believe it was a very "value added" audit. If everyone experienced what I experience with this auditor the ISO registration world would have a very different flavour to it.
