The process normally includes means whereby the auditor and the audited area have a comprehensive discussion and reach agreement on the findings and corresponding corrective or preventive actions. Clear procedures are typically established to resolve any disagreement between the auditor and audited area, and action items are followed up to ensure closeout within an appropriate time frame. To ensure auditors gather sufficient evidence to produce realistic assessments during an audit, the program typically includes guidance that defines the various sampling techniques that are expected to be used by auditors in the evidence collection phase of the audit.
