Hi Joe,
hope this is not coming too late (since the post date).
.1 Would you use an app during an audit?
Yes, especially a multiple choice one during shopfloor tours (with the ability to record voice or having voice-to-text conversion)
2. For Quality Management Systems that you audit, which standard do you audit to most often? (ISO 9001, ISO 13485, 21 CFR 820, AS9100C, 14 CFR 21, etc.)
ISO9001, ISO 22716, EUGMP
3. If you had an app that could perform talk to text would you use it during audit interviews?
yes. I've already used voice recorders in the past. voice-to-text would be even greater
4. What parts of the audit process would a smartphone or tablet app best facilitate?
(1) Audit scheduling (2) Preparation (3) Audit interviews (4) Process tracing (5) Audit report (6) Corrective Actions (7) Corrective Action Effectiveness (8) The entire audit process
3,4 and 5
5. If you had an app that could facilitate QMS auditing, do you prefer Android or iOS? Smartphone or Tablet? Other?
both systems. Smartphone for the shopfloor tour and tablet for the desktop part of the audit
6. Would you pay $20/year for an app to help with auditing or would you prefer to have a free app with Ads?
pay per year. Data integrity and protection, confidentiality agreement would apply
best regards,
Minas
