The sad thing is this is not a re qualifying audit for a supplier. It is a ANAB accredited certification audit.

So let me get this straight. You're doing an internal audit because your company will soon be facing an external ANAB accredited audit?

If that is the case, my suggestion would be to do what my earlier post suggests except where it talks of the external supplier, substitute your own company.

Our QMS is extremely poor. I am an individual who has worked on the floor for 11 years and have been put in this position because I know our processes and was trained by our Quality Manager who left years ago.

What position? A new role? Are you now the Quality Manager?

What was the nature of the training?
Unfortunately I do not know much about the standards and until I get the schooling behind me, I wont know. The certifying body which has been doing our audit for years has allowed us to be this poor. We had a different 3rd party Gap analysis earlier this year and he told us we are not even close to meeting the standards. I hear what you are all saying and wish I could tell you something more positive but if I knew the answers I wouldnt be here asking for help. All I can say is wish me luck and I will hopefully continue to learn what exactly I can do to improve our QMS. Still open to suggestions though :(

Your company must have copies of ISO 9001 and AS 9100 you can consult. Do you have them?

Was there a gap analysis report? Who commissioned it, and can they help you? Were corrective actions assigned as a result of the gap analysis? Can you start by auditing them?

Hope this helps
Pat

Kind of a tough spot.

I doubt you'll really find any kind of magic matrix that will solve everything, but I attached a junky little excel sheet that hits all the major aspects of ISO/AS.

Just a reminder... whoever is auditing you is doing it for your benefit. Even if you are nervous or scared or whatever... They are there to help. So feel free to talk to them and get ideas. Who knows, maybe the auditor will even give you his internal audit plan and matrix. :)

Rather than tap dance and fake your way through the audit, just suck it up and take a couple nonconformances. You'll be better off in the long run, providing you actually have the intention of cleaning it up...
