scope:
This Manual provides direction and guidance on the general principles of management system and technical auditing, the management of audit programmes, the process for carrying out management system audits and the qualifications for management system auditors. It is applicable to all parts of the business operating under Network Rail's safety case and management system and thus having a need to manage internal, external and extrinsic audits. Audit is not a substitute for management action. Whilst the principles described in this manual will be similar, this manual does not cover audits carried out by HQ Internal Audit department or the audit process used by external bodies.
