ISO 19011:2018 5.3: Determining and evaluating audit programme risks and opportunities

Guidance: those managing the programme should identify the risks and opportunities associated with it and put them before the audit client so that they can be dealt with. Risks can arise in planning (irrelevant objectives, wrong extent or schedule), resources (insufficient time, equipment or training), audit team selection (insufficient competence), communication, implementation (poor coordination, information security ignored), control of documented information (audit records inadequately determined or protected), monitoring and review, and whether the auditee is available and cooperative and whether evidence can be sampled. Opportunities include combining audits in one visit, minimising travel, matching team competence to need and aligning dates with key staff availability.
