Thanks everyone!
Yes- I did say it all wrong. The potential customer is auditing us as the potential supplier...
Ok, so I'll let the VP go off on his own and say whatever he likes to the auditor. And you are all right that this could be a good thing - it will hopefully scare him enough to start working with me to get his dept's QMS pieces into place. Lordy knows my constant reminders aren't doing any good. I just wish that the customer had given us more warning so that I could have convened those dept's and said "hey guys we have two weeks to get your Stuff in order. This is not a drill. Repeat, this is not a drill". And maybe then they may have dashed around to do it since they are a reactive group always looking for the next emergency.
The downside is that if the audit goes well, the VP will breathe a sigh of relief and think that I've been pulling his leg all this time. And then nothing will get done.
I guess it could go either way...
