A process auditing it is generally sought after by managers who are concerned about the organization's performance, whether due to level of productivity, financial losses, or excessive turnover. In some cases, also due to the need to comply with legislation, to identify risks or comply with processes relevant to the business. Therefore, the process auditing it is a verification, a formal process composed of steps, with the objective of improving the organization's internal processes.
The first phase of process auditing involves the planning of the work, together with the identification of the team that will participate, which processes will be audited, as well as the audit schedule. In this phase of process auditing it is important to define the tools for the work and also to raise awareness among the organization's team of collaborators, to encourage everyone's participation in a positive way.
The analysis of the processes is already part of a second phase of process auditing. After planning, the team of auditors begins the interviews with the collaborators, to be aware of the details of each process. The team will verify the organization's policies, collect evidence, analyze data, and prepare analytical reports. Throughout this stage, up to the submission of the reports, the auditing of processes aims at efficiency and effectiveness in achieving positive results.
The third stage of process auditing is marked by the assessment of the level of improvement of the processes and commitment of the employees involved. The auditing team will provide the organization with a report on the identified flaws, which negatively impact the company's objectives. This stage allows suggestions for optimizations or expenditure direction, for areas that may bring more return to the fulfillment of these objectives.
A process auditing it also contributes to strengthening culture and improving management practices, improving the technological resources used in the processes, access to secure information and adequate work structures. The actions of process auditing identify and highlight non-compliances and suggest regulatory actions, as well as monitor their level of implementation. For more critical processes, directly linked to corporate strategy, it is recommended to prioritize processes that use different systems for their execution, as well as processes with a high volume of activities and different executors/managers.
A highly important point is that process auditing it is a mechanism not only for evaluation, but for continuous improvement. Therefore, the frequency of the work and the involvement of a multidisciplinary team make all the difference in the results.
