First party operation and maintenance audit
Asset Management and Maintenance Audits was written by Ralph Bell and Jo Harris and published by BSRIA in July 2012. It states: ‘First party audits are necessary for management to monitor, control, review and correct the processes of its own organisation. The output from audits becomes a part of the organisation’s management information systems. Audits take place at a number of levels in an organisation. They range from self-audits with personnel auditing their own processes, to senior management auditing the organisation as a whole. In between there may be different levels of the organisation carrying out audits in their own domain. Information derived from audits on the smaller functions or systems provides an input to those audits carried out on larger systems or functions.’
