The applied audit style is characterized as strict yet constructive, always accompanied by valuable, forward-looking feedback. An audit is only successful if it not only uncovers non-conformities but also genuinely encourages an organization to grow to a higher quality level. Facts are pursued, risks are objectively assessed, and reports are clear and concise — with the applicable standard always kept sharply in focus.
