Build the evidence position
Trace each requirement to current records, owners, dates and unresolved gaps before review begins.
Audit and inspection
Arrive ready to inspect.
An inspection worker builds the review pack, tests evidence gaps against verified failure patterns and keeps findings connected to closure. Inspectors retain the judgement.
The question
How much inspection time goes into finding evidence and proving closure?
01
What is prepared before review
02
How missing evidence is handled
03
Which decisions stay with inspectors
04
How closure is proven
The operational problem
Inspectors should arrive ready to inspect, not ready to hunt for records.
01Before the review, teams locate current records, reconcile versions and chase gaps. After it, the same people follow findings through corrective action and assemble closure evidence.
02The worker takes on that preparation and follow-through. The authorised inspector still sets severity, accepts the finding and decides whether the evidence is sufficient to close it.
Inspection lifecycle
Keep one evidence thread from scope to closure.
The worker keeps the scope, evidence, findings and closure record connected.
Scope
Determine what is due and which procedure applies.
Prepare
Assemble evidence and issue targeted requests for gaps.
Review
Support field or desktop checks against the procedure.
Resolve
Prepare findings and route corrective actions.
Verify
Confirm closure evidence and retain the audit package.
Inspection intelligence
Prepare the known review path and surface what does not fit it.
Audit work rarely fails because a checklist is unavailable. It slows down when evidence is inconsistent, a finding resembles several prior patterns or the current procedure does not explain what happened.
Test the finding
Compare the observed condition with verified failure patterns and identify evidence that would distinguish them.
Escalate the novel case
Package the record, uncertainty and open questions for the authorised inspector or specialist.
The expert owns the finding. Intelliger preserves the reasoning and closure evidence so the next comparable inspection starts from a stronger position.
Human responsibility
Keep professional judgement with the accountable role.
The worker prepares and tests the evidence. Approval, severity and acceptance remain assigned to accountable roles.
Worker responsibility
Preparation and follow-through
Configure responsibilities against the applicable procedure, evidence standard and approval model.
Prepare the scope
Identify applicable assets, records, controls and prior findings.
Validate evidence
Check presence, currency, provenance and internal consistency.
Prepare findings
Structure observed gaps against the relevant requirement.
Track closure
Link corrective actions and completion evidence back to the finding.
Accountable role
Human judgement and approval
Decisions with material, regulated or professional consequences stay with the named accountable role.
Approval of inspection scope
Review of material findings
Severity and risk classification
Acceptance of corrective actions
Closure approval
Escalation of incomplete or conflicting evidence
What to measure
Measure whether inspectors get time back without losing quality.
Use process measures that reflect preparation, review quality and closure, not a generic AI score.
- 01Preparation time
- 02Missing-record rate
- 03Review time
- 04Evidence completeness
- 05Repeat findings
- 06Closure cycle time
Start with one inspection
Bring one recurring inspection and its recent case files.
Use representative cases to define the worker boundary and the measures that would demonstrate value.
