Remote auditing is where the auditor conducts the audit without being physically present at the auditee location. Methods of conducting a remote audit include video conferencing, file sharing, and via telephone.
Let's look at the main advantages below:
- Eliminates travel costs while still being able to review and conduct interviews;
- Accept and share documentation, data, and information;
- Inspect documents and methodologies remotely in a safe, efficient and economical way.
- No lost time due to traveling;
- More flexibility with scheduling;
- Minimum interruption to your work flow as audit participants;
- Auditors can invest quality time in their process with a reduction in travel time;
- Option of subject-matter experts join specific aspects of the audit.
- Reduces ‘audit burnout’.
One of the main benefits is to make auditing work accessible to all companies, since small and medium-sized companies do not need to have a complete audit in all departments nor do they need to invest large amounts to have their company monitored and developed by auditing work.
