Auditor

Auditor - In the context of this quality management standard, an auditor is a person who collects evidence in order to evaluate how well quality management systems meet requirements. Auditors are expected to determine whether quality management systems comply with standards and other planned arrangements. They must also be able to determine whether quality management systems are properly implemented and maintained. And they must be able to do all of this while being independent, objective, impartial, and competent.
