A production facility audit can be a time-consuming and difficult task but with top-level compliance systems, you can ensure that your facility exceeds regulatory requirements.
We all know how stressful it can be leading up to an external audit.

Biggest Mistakes When It Comes To Audits:
External audits can certainly spring up on you if you’re not organised and poor scores can be detrimental to a company’s reputation in the industry. Perhaps the biggest mistake we see is quality assurance teams scrambling to get their facility up to standard in the days and even hours leading up to the audit. This is not a sustainable approach and only leads to unnecessary stress.
Neglecting Training
Not Keeping Records
How We Stay Prepared For External Audits:
Based on our 20+ years of industrial disinfection experience, SGA has developed an industry-leading audit preparation plan that we strongly believe can assist you. We understand how stretched for time quality assurance managers are, which can make it difficult to find the time to focus on the long term. So, just know that this framework hasn’t happened overnight. It’s been developed over years of trial and error. It requires a proactive approach and will mean that you are always on the front foot when it comes to audits and relies on the following systems:
Tight Record Keeping Using iAuditor
Each and every day, we leverage technology to help us keep accurate records of every clean we do.
iAuditor allows us to be agile and informed as we go. We can identify potential performance decrements as, or even before they happen.
We are able to immediately make changes to keep the best quality control in the industry.
Up To Date Training Using TalentLMS
Keeping your cleaners up to date with the latest training is a mammoth task. Although it may seem cumbersome and at times overkill, we promise you it’s worth the investment.
We bring a systematised approach to our training using Talent LMS, which allows us to quickly identify when employees are approaching their training deadlines.
This not only helps us to achieve top scores in the training component of external audits but also means our cleaners can be the most professional and competent in the industry.
The Bottom Line
External audits are a regular and inevitable part of the industrial cleaning sector. When it comes to audits, being on the front foot is going to hold you in extremely good stead, helping you avoid unnecessary, last-minute stress.
Practically speaking, keeping your employees up to date with their training and updating that training after each audit to address any corrective actions needed will allow your team to not make the same mistake twice and stand on the shoulders of the expertise of the auditors. In addition, ensuring tight record-keeping via your internal auditing software are certain keys to success.
