Process Based Internal Audit

Texas Quality Assurance believes a Process Based Internal Audit is the easiest approach. We subscribe to the tried and true plan, do, check, act process. Through a process audit, we are better able to identify required inputs, compared to outputs, that are checked against pre-defined measures and objectives.

According to ISO 9001, your internal audit should at a minimum evaluate:

Conformity of products and services
The degree of customer satisfaction
The performance and effectiveness of the quality management system
If planning has been implemented effectively
The effectiveness of actions taken to address risks and opportunities
The performance of external providers
The need for improvements to the quality management system
