What Are the benefits

Grounded in IAF MD 4

Our remote audits are delivered in accordance with IAF MD 4: Use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) for Auditing/Assessment Purposes. The extent of remote techniques used depends on the client, the standard, and the risks involved.

Cost-Effective

• Typically lower cost than an equivalent on-site visit, since travel and associated expenses are avoided.

Fast & Flexible

• Audit dates can often be agreed more quickly, minimising potential on-site disruption.
• Easier access to technical experts and multiple stakeholders, wherever they are based.

Safe & Sustainable

• Reduced health and safety exposure for people travelling to hazardous or hard-to-reach locations.
• Less travel means a smaller carbon footprint.

Documented & Secure

• Audit evidence is gathered and retained under documented procedures, using secure, access-controlled online platforms.
• Where a standard, client or risk profile calls for it, some or all of the audit is carried out on-site instead.
