What is a QMS Internal Audit?
A QMS - Quality Management System Audit or survey is the on-site verification activity, such as inspection or examination, of a process or quality system, to ensure compliance to requirements. Audits are an independent and unbiased evaluation of your existing practices to determine if a business complies with policies, contract commitments and regulatory standards. An audit can apply to an entire organization or might be specific to a function, process, or production step.
Why is an Audit important?
Reasons for auditing include evaluation of your competitive edge, pre-audit assessment, and continuous improvement. Results of quality assurance audits or surveys are used to identify problems, reduce costs, assess personnel competency, review equipment maintenance programs, provide visible management support, ensure adherence to process standards, determine system effectiveness, and identify system inefficiencies.
