General guidance When conducting an internal audit, it can be useful to have a list of standard questions to ask, organized according to the sections of the ISO22301 standard. This makes the audit more interesting than simply reading the requirements from a spreadsheet. It’s possible that any one audit will not cover all parts of the standard, so you may need to edit this checklist to cover the areas you need. You may also like to add further questions to the lists, depending on the type of organization you are auditing. At each stage, it is important that evidence is reviewed and recorded to prove that procedures etc. are in place.
Review frequency We would recommend that this document is reviewed annually.
