Remote Auditing

Description

Remote auditing has been thrust into the limelight given the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. However, remote auditing has been around for well over a decade. Its popularity has been spurred by advances in technology and the globalization of economies.

The purpose of auditing is to verify the conformance of an organization’s processes and management system to defined requirements. Depending on the type of audit and the objective, the conformance criteria vary. Even with the constraints of remote auditing, these results still need to be achieved.
