Internal Audit Checklist

Process-based audit prompts for ISO 13485 / QMSR audits — understanding, performance, risk and prior findings — with an evidence column that records what you actually sampled.

DOCX templateProcess-basedEvidence-sampling discipline built in
  • Audit processes, not paragraphs — the checklist follows how work flows, the approach auditors are trained to use
  • Record what you sampled (IDs, dates, quantities), so findings survive challenge
  • Walk in with prior findings loaded — follow-up verification is a section, not a memory
What's inside

Built like the working documents we write about

  • Checklist details block

    Audit scope, criteria, date and auditor — the identity fields your audit record needs.

  • Process understanding

    Prompts that establish inputs, outputs, owners and interactions before any conformity question is asked.

  • Process performance

    Objective-evidence prompts against the process's own metrics and the applicable clauses.

  • Risk and change

    What changed since last audit, and whether risk controls moved with it.

  • Prior findings

    Verification prompts for earlier nonconformities — §8.2.4's follow-up requirement as a section.

  • Summary of findings

    Classified findings with evidence references, ready to route into reporting and CAPA.

Why each section exists

Bundle shops sell you a zip and a wish. Every section of this document states the clause it was written to satisfy — the same map is printed inside the document, where your auditor can read it.
