1.0    SUMMARY

         1.1    Audit Description.  Summarize the audit:  area, date(s), type, scope, and basis.

         1.2    Findings.  Summarize important major findings that dictate the result and recommendations.

         1.3    Result.  State the result:  pass or fail.

         1.4    Recommendations.  Summarize the follow-up recommendations specified in the audit results section of the report.

2.0    AUDIT DESCRIPTION

         2.1    Area(s).  Indicate the area(s) and department(s) audited.

         2.2    Audit Dates.  Record the date or date range of the audit.

         2.3    Type.  Specify whether this was a system, compliance, process, or project audit, or some combination thereof.

         2.4    Scope.  Indicate whether this was a full, partial, or follow-up audit.

         2.5    Basis.  Describe the basis of the audit (what the areas audited were compared with, such as requirements, policies, standards, procedures, and so on).

         2.6    Personnel Contacted.  List the personnel who were contacted by the auditors and their titles, organizations, and roles.

         2.7    Auditors.  List the auditors and their titles, organizations, and roles.

         2.8    Checklist and Procedure References.  List standard checklists and procedures used by the auditors.

3.0    AUDIT RESULTS

         3.1    Auditors’ Position.  State the result:  pass or fail.

         3.2    Follow-Up Recommendations.  Recommend one of the following:  no follow-up audit (only if “pass”); follow-up audit to verify completion of corrective actions; follow-up audit (specify whether full or partial).

         3.3    Findings and Corrective Action Plans.  List and briefly describe the major findings of the audit.  For each finding, show who is responsible for the corrective action plan and the target date for the plan’s completion.

                  In this section, note the quantity of major findings and observations, but avoid detailing them here unless, in aggregate, they represent a significant problem or point to a pervasive but noncritical breakdown in area, process, or procedure.
