KAVON has developed a unique approach to Internal Auditing. It spreads the task among many workers rather than just one audit team - and it can be done at regular intervals throughout the year, rather than just at "crunch time". There are numerous benefits to this approach, including promoting higher levels of employee involvement, earlier identification of discrepancies in your quality system, and transforming the audit process into smaller, more manageable pieces.
