Centralised audit planning across regions and countries
Centralised audit planning across regions: shared rules, local differences, cross-border auditors and one view of capacity.
Key takeaways
- Share the rules that are common; configure what's local.
- One view of capacity reveals cross-border options.
- Local planners keep ownership of their region.
Centralised audit planning across regions means one set of shared rules and one view of capacity, with local differences such as languages, accreditation bodies and travel limits configured per region. It lets bodies share auditors across borders and see capacity gaps early, without losing local knowledge.
Shared vs local rules
| Rule | Shared or local |
|---|---|
| Competence per standard and code | Shared |
| Accreditation body per standard | Local |
| Languages | Local |
| Rotation and conflicts | Shared |
| Travel limits | Local |
| Internal-first preference | Shared |
