Abstract
This chapter introduces the idea to the newcomer to auditing, and to those already performing audits, that very real effort has to be invested in planning before any on-site auditing should take place.
An outline of what the audit initiator, the client, should review while setting out the areas to be covered by any audit is given and the steps to be performed while establishing the boundaries of the proposed audit stated.
The contents of each of these steps is then examined in some detail in order that the planning requirements may be understood and taken into account.
