The credibility of an inspection conclusion depends on competent people, suitable resources and effective control over externally provided products and services.
Part 2 explores how to audit the resource requirements supporting inspection activities. Participants will learn how to evaluate competence criteria, selection, training, authorisation, monitoring and the ongoing performance of inspectors and other personnel.
The session will also consider facilities, equipment, calibration, maintenance, access controls and the suitability of resources used during inspections. Attention will be given to externally provided products and services, including how providers are selected, evaluated and monitored. The focus will be on gathering evidence that resources are not merely available, but remain suitable and effectively controlled.
