Definition of KOLAS Internal Audit
  • KOLAS internal audits are performed by KOLAS accredited institutions to verify that the quality systems and operational processes meet international standards such as ISO/IEC 17025, ISO/IEC 17020, and KOLAS requirements. Internal audits are conducted regularly with the primary objectives of:

    1. Conformity Verification : Reviewing whether the institution’s quality management system complies with the specified standards and guidelines.
    2. Continuous Improvement : Identifying and rectifying issues through internal audits, thereby enhancing the quality system for continuous performance improvement.
    3. Compliance Verification : Ensuring adherence to relevant laws and regulations to minimize legal risks.

    Key Elements of Internal Audit
    - Planning : The internal audit plan is established annually or quarterly, including the scope, objectives, and schedule of the audit.
    - Execution : The audit team independently and objectively reviews all procedures and activities of the institution, which involves document review, on-site observation, and interviews.
    - Reporting and Action : The audit results are documented in a report, and a corrective action plan is developed and implemented for any non-conformities found.
    - Follow-up and Verification : The effectiveness of the corrective actions is verified, and additional audits are conducted if necessary to ensure ongoing improvement.
