What is a Remote Audit?
A remote audit, also known as a virtual audit, is the method of conducting an audit remotely, using electronic methods such as video conferencing, email, and telephone to obtain audit evidence, just like you would during an on-site audit.
The overall aim is to evaluate this evidence objectively to determine the extent to which the audit criteria have been fulfilled.
Our remote auditing service allows our technical experts to review documentation, conduct interviews and site tours using technology. Remote audits maintain the high standards of on-site audits while offering flexibility for businesses. They can be co-witnessed by multiple stakeholders within your business, who can also interact with auditors via a live stream.
