Process Audit

A process audit focuses on the evaluation and optimization of specific processes within a company. The goal is to assess and continuously improve process quality and efficiency. Process audits help identify weaknesses and develop measures for process optimization.

Implementation

Process audits are often conducted by internal auditors or external experts. Auditors evaluate the process flows based on process descriptions, performance metrics, and direct observations. Key aspects of a process audit include reviewing process documentation, analyzing process performance, and identifying potential improvements.

Benefits
