Internal Auditing for your
Management System
All ISO standards have an internal audit requirement. DDN Management Solutions has a team of consultants that are certified lead auditors. They understand what to look for during an internal audit because they have years of experience in the industry, and conduct 3rd party audits and assessments to AS9100D, ISO 9001:2015, ISO/IEC 17025:2017, S-A-01:2017, and NADCAP for certifying bodies.
Why You Should Outsource your internal audit program
TIME & RESOURCES. Avoid your team from having to take time away from daily responsibilities to train and become certified, create the plan, prepare for the internal audit, conduct it, and then write the report. Our auditors are quick, thorough, and efficient.
OBJECTIVITY. Avoid the “well… we know we are working on that so we will just skip it” mentality. Have a fresh set of eyes comb through your system with an unbiased assessment to find the areas of your system that need improvement.
INDUSTRY BEST PRACTICE. Our consultants see industry best practice in the field, and can share new ideas for improving efficiency, effectiveness of operations, improving controls, and reducing risk.
EXTERNAL AUDIT PREP. Our consultants will use their technical knowledge to help you prepare for your external audit.
Our Approach to Internal Auditing
Regardless of the standard, internal audits are one of the key drivers of all ISO standards. Internal audits are meant to produce findings that ultimately will drive improvement through corrective actions within your organization.
As an external provider delivering that internal auditing service, we want to add as much value throughout the process as we can. We do this through an unobtrusive, process approach where our consultants will coach and mentor your team along the way. During the audit they will use their technical knowledge and knowledge of industry best practice to share valuable insights for practical application of the standard requirements as well as recommendations on how to address findings.
After the internal audit, you will receive a full internal audit report documenting objective evidence of compliance, system strengths, areas of non-conformance, and opportunities for improvement.
