Internal Audit Consulting

AS/ISO Requirements

The majority of ISO standards require periodic internal audits to determine whether the Quality Management System conforms to the applicable ISO/AS Standard as well as the organizations established process documentation and activities. Also, internal audits are expected to determine if the Quality Management System is effectively implemented.
