Re: Seeking: Internal Audit Checklists
I have reviewed many of the checklists posted here and they are really good, I may use some of the ideas posted here. I thought that I would share my thoughts as well on this subject.
I have auditors who are not really well versed to the standard and get that deer in the headlights look at the mention of concepts of auditing or anything to do with the QMS. So I have had to design systems and checklists that sort of trick them into using things. I have created a checklist that tells an auditor where to go, what to look for specifically and whom to interview. If I did not they would be clueless and my audit program would be a flop.
You may ask why the company doesn't send these auditors for training. Well, they simply do not have the resources, it is a very small company and we all wear many hats (as I am sure many of my counterparts here do as well).
My checklist requires a little more work on my behalf to write, but so far has been more useful to my auditors. Also, this is just for M.O.P.'s (management oriented process), I still need to draft S.O.P. & C.O.P.'s checklists yet.
Take a look and see if it will help you.
