Description
Why it is useful
There are several, more or less, mandatory aspects that should be planned while preparing an audit. The audit plan template helps the auditor remember these areas and presents the information in a logical order.
How to use it
1. Use the audit program as input when preparing the audit plan.
2. Fill in the fields of the audit plan template while reviewing quality documents from the auditee and preparing for the audit.
3. Ensure that the auditee confirms the audit plan before conducting the audit activities.
In this template, instructions and/or explanations are included using blue italic texts such as these. Instructions and explanations should be removed before the review of the document.
All texts that are not blue are example texts that can and should be edited by you.
Texts that most certainly should be replaced or updated are identified by the { and } characters. They should be removed and the example text customised to work with the current project.
