As downsizing, cross-training, and production schedules
increasingly absorb corporate resources, complying with auditing requirements
is becoming increasingly difficult. Managers and auditors are finding
it progressively harder to support audit requirements because of increased
responsibilities and demands on work center productivity. Many companies
are experiencing the lack of time and resources to conduct, follow through,
and report audit activities.
Our approach to auditing has five primary elements:
- Sample operational adherence to the standard being audited
- Provide a record of conformance to requirements
- Provide a will written statement of nonconformance if found
- Create a training opportunity within the specific department being
audited
- Harness enthusiasm and support for the "Business Management
System"
Utilizing our approach, you will receive:
- Functional Department Matrix
- Audit Schedule
- Audit Notification Letters
- Operational Analysis Chart
- Opening and Closing Meeting Record
- Individual Nonconformance Reports
- Nonconformance Summary Matrix
This information will help you:
- Determine Resource Requirements (i.e., training, manpower, equipment,
etc.
- Develop an "Action Plan" to Guide the Closeout of Nonconformance's
- Assign Responsibility for Corrective and Preventative Action to
Specific Individuals
- Distribute an Awareness of the Business Management System
- Assess Your Current Business Management Systems Effectiveness
- Determine Opportunities for Improvement
- Drive Continual Improvement
- Identify Internal "Pockets of Excellence"
- Gain Support Toward Your Business Management System
