Question 11

You work as an external quality consultant for an organisation, 'A', which provides packaged food to the public. You are asked to lead a team (you as the leader and two other auditors) to audit a supplier, 'B', to ISO 9001 which provides packaging materials to your organisation. It is 4 pm and the audit is close to an end; you are having an internal meeting with the team to decide what will be presented to the auditee during the Closing meeting. The Closing meeting was scheduled at 5 pm.

You, as Audit Team Leader, audited top management. You explain to the audit team that you identified two nonconformities:

a. There is no documented information on Top Management Reviews, as required in clause 9.3 of ISO 9001:2015.

b. There is no evidence of Top Management Commitment as required in clause 5.1 of ISO 9001:2015. (e.g., not ensuring the availability of resources

to operate the QMS, not ensuring the establishment of objectives, no promotion of improvement, no promotion of the process approach).

All agreed to present these two nonconformities. They went to meet the Top Management of 'B' and noticed that the General Manager and three other managers (Production, Human Resources, and Sales) were present in the meeting room.

Considering the seriousness of the two nonconformities to Top Management, as audit team leader, from the following select the best option:

Options:

A.

Present the nonconformities to the whole group and inform that you will recommend your company to remove them from the approved suppliers list.

B.

Present the nonconformities to the managers, inform them that the report will be sent within 10 days, close the meeting and leave the site.

C.

Ask the General Manager to have a private conversation in which you present the nonconformities only to him because of their sensitive nature.

D.

Present the nonconformities to the whole group and analyse with them how to overcome this situation.
