The objective of this auditing tool is to enable organisations to assess their Quality Assurance performance against the requirements of operating an appropriate Quality Management System and the requirements of an appropriate international quality standard, such as EN ISO 9001:2015 or ISO/IEC 17025:2005

Scope
The auditing tool covers the requirements of operating an appropriate Quality Management System and the requirements of an appropriate international quality standard, such as EN ISO 9001:2015 or ISO/IEC 17025:2005. It does not cover the requirements of Environmental Management or Occupational Health and Safety Management (such as ISO 14001:2015 or BS OHSAS 18001:2007).
For which laboratories
The auditing tool is applicable to every size and type of organisation which provide a laboratory testing service. Although aimed at feed analysis laboratories the principle would apply to any type of testing and/or calibration laboratory. It may also be useful for laboratories seeking accreditation to ISO 15189:2012 (Medical Laboratories - Requirements for quality and competence).
Who should perform the auditing
It should be completed by those familiar with the requirements of a Quality Management System and the appropriate standard.
Further information on the implementation of a Quality Management System is available in FAO Document 14 (http://www.fao.org/docrep/014/i2441e/i2441e00.pdf ) and FAO Document 15 (http://www.fao.org/3/i3535e.pdf).
What information does it provide
The auditing tool will provide an assessment of how well an organisation has its procedures under control and identify those operations which would benefit from improvement and review.

Best regards,
