Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B, D

Question no: 22 Verified Answer: = B. Establish how the organisation reviews

According to ISO 9001:2015, clause 10.3, the organisation must continually improve the suitability, adequacy, and effectiveness of the quality management system. The organisation must also consider the results of analysis and evaluation, and the outputs from management review, to determine if there are any needs or opportunities for improvement. SWOT analysis can help the organisation to identify the areas where improvement is needed or possible, such as addressing the weaknesses and threats, or exploiting the strengths and opportunities. However, the SWOT analysis alone is not sufficient to comply with the requirement, as the organisation also needs to take actions to implement the improvement, such as setting objectives, allocating resources, assigning responsibilities, and evaluating the effectiveness. Therefore, another audit trail would be to establish what actions were taken to improve the QMS, such as what, when, by whom, how, and with what results. 124 Reference:

I also think A should be included, as the list of findings from the last audit can provide important context for the current audit.

I agree with you, Dominga. D for the sequence and timings of audit activities, and F for the names of auditees and auditors.

D and F seem like the clear choices here. An audit plan should outline the sequence and timing of the audit activities, as well as the names of the auditees and auditors involved.
