Internal Quality Audit Help

Home - Articles

When an audit is conducted by the people of the organization or related to it then it is called internal audit.

When the audit is done with the quality system of the organization then that is referred to as the internal quality audit. All registrars, Notified Bodies, FDA, Canada, etc., require that an organization conduct a full internal quality system audit BEFORE it gets audited by one of these organizations. Most of the regulatory agencies highly recommend skilled, qualified internal auditors because if the company is being hard on itself, deficiencies that might prevent certification, clearance, etc., are flushed out before this occurs.

The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) define internal auditing as follows

Internal auditing is an independent, objective assurance, and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organization's operations. It helps an organization accomplish its objectives by bringing systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes.

Internal quality audits are conducted from time to time to see if the organization is fulfilling the rules and regulations of the quality standards. It helps the organization to figure out if there are any anomalies and the corrective measure that can be taken for the prevention and correction of the same.

The entire procedure of internal quality audit normally involves the assessment of Standard Operation Procedures (SOP’s) and associated forms in keeping a constant watch to see if they abide by the regulations of the Quality standards and internal processes.
