This document provides an overview of auditing a Quality Management System (QMS) according to ISO 17025. It defines a quality audit as a systematic and documented process to evaluate if agreed procedures and criteria are being followed. Audits are conducted to ensure compliance, identify improvements, and provide confidence in the effectiveness of the QMS. The auditor should be trained and independent, using checklists to audit elements like quality manuals, procedures, records and evidence.

Effective auditing involves planning, conducting the audit, reporting findings, and following up on issues.
