Notes
Claudia's Notes:
The 2018 edition of ISO 19011 reflects the need for a more generic guide for a wider range of auditing requirements, beyond covering just quality and environmental management systems standards.
In this edition, remote auditing methods and the concept of risk management to systems auditing are introduced. The relationship between the document and ISO/IEC 17021-1 has been clarified. Confidentiality has been added as a new principle of auditing. A new Annex A give illustrative examples of discipline-specific knowledge and skills. And additional information has been included in Annex B, resulting in the removal of help boxes.
For third party auditing, you should also consider the use of ISO/IEC 17021-1:2015, “Conformity assessment – Requirements for bodies providing audit and certification of management systems.”
