Internal audits
Internal auditors
Internal auditors are chosen based on the following characteristics by the DQM or CEO:
- Trustworthy
- Incorruptible
- High intellect to evaluate and investigate quality deficiencies
- 3-5 internal auditors must be active in the company
Audits
Every department needs to be audited once every quarter by an internal auditor who is not part of the department. The DQM organizes and controls these internal audits. The results of the internal audits must be documented by the internal auditors on the Internal Quality Management Audit Form.
The results of the internal audits are reviewed by the DQM and appropriate steps are taken by the DQM in case of audit findings. (R1)
Quality control
Quality control is performed manually and continuously. Additional quality control tasks besides the quality control activities which are directly implemented in the various processes are:
- Evaluating customer satisfaction through the support
- Manual software quality checks (ease of use, features, documentation, bug hunting, security checks, ...)
- in addition to the checks and controls defined in the development process
- Analyzing bugs and features
- open bugs, time until bugs are closed
- open feature requests, time until feature requests are resolved
The quality management department can improve some of the deficiencies by themselves (i.e. documentation improvements) or create a quality control report for a specific supposed deficiency for further investigation in the project tasks. Some of the supposed deficiencies may be ruled as intended and will not require a change. This decision is made by the CTO together with the DQM. (R2)
Document management
The quality management department is responsible for ensuring the correctness, completeness and overall quality of the process documentation as well as the related documents. For this reason the quality management department has to check these documents once a year and ensure that all documents have the necessary approvals, are still up-to-date, correct and complete. The basis for this check is the Document Owners list. (R3)
