  • Stage-1 Audit

    1. What do auditor look for in Stage- 1 audit?

    According to IATF 16949:2016 rules 5; the documents, I mentioned below should be ready for Stage -1 audit. In other words, the quality management system should be established, an internal audit should be done, and a management review should be completed before the stage 1 audit.

    Documents and subjects should be ready before Stage 1 audit:

      a) Description of the remote location and the support they provide.

      b) Description of processes showing the sequence and interactions, including the identification of remote supporting functions and outsourced processes.

      c) Key indicators and performance trends for the previous twelve (12) months, minimum.

      d) Evidence that all the requirements of IATF 16949 are addressed by the client's processes.

      e) Quality manual, including the interactions with support functions on-site or remote.

      f) Evidence of one full cycle of internal audits to IATF 16949 followed by a management review.

      g) List of qualified internal auditors and the criteria for qualification.

      h) List of automotive customers and their customer-specific requirements, if applicable.

      i) Customer complaint summary and responses, scorecards, and special status, if applicable.

    2. Is it mandatory that MRM & Internal audit is conducted before a stage-1 audit?

    As you can see as listed above, the completion of the management review and internal audits are mandatory matters.

  • Lead Auditor vs Lead implementer courses

    A lead implementer can work as lead auditor if he or she does not audit her own work, that can happen if the lead implementer is also a member of the audited organization.

    About course adequacy this is my recommendation:

  • Question about software

    The hash is a random set of characters that can be used to uniquely identify a file, and it is provided so you can verify if a downloaded file is a valid copy of the one you wanted to download (i.e., you can verify if the downloaded file was not tampered with).

    The process is simple:

    • you download the file
    • you use the file with a hash generator (you can easily find free hash generators on the Internet) and check the generated sequence against the hash provided by the site. If the values are equal the file is ok (i.e., it is a copy of the file provided by the site).

  • What does it mean to have security classification in a document?

    To have a security classification in a document means that this document requires to be protected according to a set of rules, depending on the security classification level.

    For example, considering the confidentiality point of view, top-secret documents need to be protected against loss of confidentiality, while public documents do not require such protection.

  • Conformio - Justification in SoA

    ISO 27001 requires a justification for all applicable controls (clause 6.1.3 “d”), so if you are adding controls in the Statement of Applicability you need to fill in the ‘justification’ field to be compliant with the standard.  

    This article will provide you a further explanation about the Statement of Applicability:

  • Project Plan for ISMS Implementation

    A mentor is someone closer to an advisor, i.e., he gives suggestions on matters related to the project (e.g., project management, information security, ISO 27001, etc.) and provides experience about previous situations he had encountered, so that the project team can have more information to make a decision on how to act, while a consultant can also have a more direct role in the project, carrying out tasks.

    About where to find a mentor, in general, he is someone who already works in the organization. In case such a person is not available in your organization, you can seek one on work-oriented social networks, like LinkedIn.

  • Chemistry

    A competent ISO 9001 auditor should have the necessary auditing skills to assess conformance of management requirements of any quality management system, thus in ISO 17025 all the clauses of Clause 8. This is because the management requirements are based on ISO 9001, and the auditor would use an ISO 17025 checklist and your own documented procedures as the criteria. 

    The shortfall is that an ISO 9001 auditor would not be able to audit the technical requirements of 17025 – in fact, many ISO 17025 lead auditors would not be able to either, if they have no technical knowledge of ISO 17025 and the test methods. It requires knowledge of techniques and method risks.
