Adelson Advisory

See whether your management system works as intended.

We plan and carry out an audit of requirements, practice and evidence, then explain the findings so people can act on them.

When an internal audit is useful

  • Before a scheduled reviewKnow where you stand before a certification or management review.
  • A process keeps causing problemsExamine one process in depth and find the cause.
  • After a changeCheck whether earlier changes are actually working.

What is reviewed, and what you get back

The findings distinguish what meets the criteria, what does not and where improvement is worth considering.

Common questions

Is this a certification audit?

No. This is an internal audit, not certification by a certification body.

Who decides what to fix?

Your organisation. We describe findings and evidence; you decide and own the corrective actions.

How long does it take?

It depends on the size of the audit. We agree the timing once we know what will be audited.
