Received the following finding during a customer audit, i.e.; "When verifyng compliance to sub clause 8.2.2 of the ISO 9001:2008 Standard - Internal Audit, it was found that the 2011 internal audit of the Quality Department was conducted by Quality personnel. Per sub clause 8.2.2 - The selection of auditors and conduct of audits shall ensure objectivity and impartiality of the audit process. Auditors sahll not audit their own work".
I agree with the auditors statement. However, my plant quality department was audited by corporate quality and hence I feel that we met the intent of the standard for objectivity and independence. Please advise.
