What is an Audit and What is the Audit Process?
"*The definition of an audit is: A systematic, independent and documented process for obtaining audit evidence and evaluating it objectively to determine the extent to which audit criteria are fulfilled". *(ISO 9000:2005)
What does this mean? Well it means that the senior management IEC Ltd are committed to provide your company with an impartial aeessment process by effectively managing any conflicts of interest using skilled, competent auditors with experience in your industry. The auditor or audit team will ask you a series of questions about your business in relation to the standard for which you are applying.
The auditors we employ are highly skilled in looking at your particular industry and are trained to add value to your audit experience, which means that, whilst they are not permitted to give you advice, they are permitted to identify areas of improvement within your business to add value, perhaps reduce time and cost for example.
In simple terms they are a fresh pair of experienced and competent eyes looking to add benefit to the audit. Therefore IEC Ltd believes the purpose of an audit is for improvement and/or positive correction and not an inspection activity.
The senior management of IEC make publicly available within the IEC offices their compliants and appeals procedures and certificates granted
