Audit and inspection
Cut the preparation and follow-up around every inspection.
An inspection worker builds the review pack, identifies evidence gaps and keeps findings connected to corrective actions. Inspectors keep the engineering or regulated judgement.
The operational problem
Inspectors should arrive ready to inspect, not ready to hunt for records.
Before 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.
The 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.
Keep one evidence thread from scope to closure.
The worker keeps the scope, evidence, findings and closure record connected.
Stage 01
Scope
Process continuity
The record moves forward to prepare.
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
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
Measure whether inspectors get time back without losing quality.

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.
