I am not a very experienced internal auditor. WHile I have done a few less than 100 internal audits, I fear I may have only done 1 audit multiplied 100 times because I have not had the opportunity to learn from other and or more experienced auditors so I may be making the same mistake each time and not know it.
With this in mind I am going to audit a project quality plan for an environmental consultancy where things like ITPs etc are not used. I am working off the idea that the purpose of this is to establish whether or not all the “this-is-what-we-are-going-to-do” statements have in fact been done. This is the approach I’ve used in the past.
To make matters worse the project quality plan was written to address each clause of ISO 9001 but it’s a bit of regurgitation of the standard.
To my way of thinking; I use the project quality plan as the checklist (which is what I have done in past) and look for evidence that each requirement of the plan has been met.
This process with this kind of plan, seems a bit limited to me so something is telling me I should be looking for evidence of something else as well but evidence of what??????
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
