What is the difference between Audit and Inspection?

Dear Friends, I would like to answer the question as below: Inspection is an observation. Inspection is to examine closely any equipment or facility. It may be formal(with a plan and a check-list) or informal.Examples: 1. Inspection of a Fire Tender with a checklist for its operability, worthiness of its fire water pump , fire monitor etc.2. Inspection of the tank shell for finding any deformity, thinning etc. Audit is a process of evaluation and to measure performances that is based on Standards & Guidelines, identifies the compliance & non-compliance based on Standards and is neutral. There are three types of audit namely: 1) Legal Compliance Audit 2) Internal Standards Audit 3) System Audit Audit is the verification of a Process, a System or a Procedure. Examples:1. Audit of Firewater pump house. 2. Audit of a Process Plant 3. Audit of Quality Control Laboratory. Here the systems and processes are verified with respect to a documented procedure. Thus the audit of a quality control laboratory will involve the verification of the existence of the quality control procedure, sampling procedure, reporting procedure etc. Learn more about the difference between a home inspection and energy audit by visiting: http://jimbushart.wordpress.com/2012/06/14/difference-between-the-home-inspection-and-the-energy-audit/
