SO WHAT IS THIS ALL ABOUT?

Following 4 years field experience, “ISO 9001:2000 Checklists” has now been rewritten as a 231 page, 37,500 e-book which includes checklists, questionnaires, example forms and background information for auditors and users of ISO 9001:200.   These checklists etc are now available via e-mail and/or snail-mail (i.e. on a CD.   (Ray Tricker)

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A CHECKLISTS?

The main purpose of an audit is to find out how well an organisation is performing and to see whether their processes and procedures for supplying a product or service are still relevant and being used.   Audit checklists (relating to compliance with requirements and performance validation) are just one tool available from the "auditors toolbox”.   Checklists are used to provide auditable proof that the system is working,

WHAT ARE WE SELLING?

Normally checklists of this nature are a closely guarded professional secret restricted to “those in the know”.   Websites that sell copies of these checklists usually only make them available as .pdf files and include heavy penalties for plagiarising their contents.   Ray, on the other hand, is very much a people person and is keen to make these checklists etc available as “unlocked” non .pdf MS Word documents that can all be quickly customised to suit your own purposes.   This is definitely not “just another” set of documents that will go mouldy in the filling cabinet!

IS IT WORTH THE MONEY?

Put it this way, It has taken Ray the best part of 4 years to produce these checklists.   As a Lead Auditor, UKAS Assessment Auditor and Quality Manager, he has used his experience to develop an auditing system that can be used by anyone – no matter their previous experience or qualification.   To start from scratch it would probably take you more than 200 hours to produce the same sort of documentation for yourself!

WHAT IS INCLUDED?

	All of the major audit check sheets and forms that are required to conduct either a simple internal review of a particular process or an external (e.g. third party) assessment of an organisation against the formal requirements of ISO 9001:2000 and/or other management standards such as ISO 140001 and OHSAS.
