Carry out ISO 9001 audits in a structured manner and provide complete evidence

Before the actual audit begins, the question arises: What is being audited, who is responsible and which standard requirements are relevant for this area? In Testify, audit managers create test plans based on the ISO 9001 chapter structure, which can be reused and adapted for different departments or locations. Dates, audited areas and contact persons are stored directly in the system. This makes the audit plan transparent and comprehensible for all those involved, without the need for e-mail agreements.

During the internal audit, the auditor accompanies the checklist directly on the tablet or smartphone through all defined inspection points. Findings, observations and deviations are recorded immediately with photos, comments and assessments. Proof of conformity can be documented on site without having to laboriously type up notes later. At the end of the inspection, there is a structured, complete audit report that can be processed directly from Testify.

After every audit, the question is: who checked what, what deviations were identified and what measures were initiated? Testify automatically generates structured audit reports from the recorded data, including assessments, photos and the current status of measures. This means that all the required evidence is available to the certification body in a complete and comprehensible form. Audit histories can be evaluated over several audit cycles and improvement trends can be made visible.

The value of an audit is only realized when deviations are consistently corrected. In Testify, corrective actions can be created directly from an audit finding, with assigned responsibility, due date and status control. Those responsible receive automatic reminders. The person responsible for the audit can see at any time which measures are open, in progress or completed. This closes the most common weak point in the audit process: the lack of follow-up after the audit.
