What are ‘audit criteria’?
We’ve all heard the term ‘audit criteria’ but what exactly does it mean? As defined in ISO 19011:2018, audit criteria are used as ‘a reference against which conformity is determined’. It goes on to say that ‘The criteria may include one or more of the following:

- Policies, processes, and procedures;
- Performance criteria including objectives, statutory and regulatory requirements, management system requirements;
- Information regarding the context and the risks and opportunities as determined by the auditee (including relevant external/internal interested parties’ requirements);
- Business sector codes of conduct or other planned arrangements.
Basically, all documented information that helps you to prove the consistency and compliance of your quality management system should be part of the scope for each individual audit. If you are auditing to verify that the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 are implemented, then the standard itself becomes the audit criteria.
If you are going to audit your quality management system documentation as per ISO 9001:2015, the audit criteria become ISO 9001:2015, and relevant quality management system documentation such as the quality manual, procedures, work instructions, standard operating procedures, and forms, etc.
If you are going to conduct a product audit against a production control plan, the audit criteria will be the control plan itself, or relevant parts of it. The same applies when auditing an operator to see whether they follow the Work Instruction, the audit criteria is the Work Instruction for that process and any applicable criteria.
