Järjestelmätarkastukset

Järjestelmätarkastukset, in English system audits, are systematic and independent examinations of an organization's systems and processes. These audits are conducted to determine whether they are effective, efficient, and compliant with established standards, regulations, or organizational policies. The primary goal is to identify potential risks, areas for improvement, and ensure that the systems are functioning as intended.

These audits can cover a wide range of systems, including information technology systems, quality management systems, environmental management systems, and safety management systems. The scope of a system audit is typically defined beforehand and may involve reviewing documentation, interviewing personnel, and observing processes in action. Auditors assess the design and implementation of the system, checking for consistency and adherence to requirements.

The outcomes of a system audit usually include a report detailing findings, which may highlight non-conformities, opportunities for improvement, and best practices. Based on these findings, organizations can implement corrective actions to enhance their systems, reduce risks, and achieve their objectives more effectively. Regular system audits are a crucial component of continuous improvement efforts and contribute to maintaining operational integrity and achieving strategic goals.
