Second-Party Audit Services
A second-party audit provides an independent view of a supplier or external provider. It helps clients confirm whether the supplier can meet quality, delivery, safety, compliance, technical, and contractual expectations.
What We Review
The audit may include documentation, process controls, quality practices, product or service checks, performance data, nonconformity records, staffing, equipment, and site conditions.
How Clients Benefit
Clients can use the audit report to approve suppliers, reduce sourcing risk, define corrective actions, monitor performance, and support better procurement decisions.
Facility Hygiene Audit Services
Facility hygiene audits help organizations understand the actual condition of hygiene practices, cleanliness, staff behavior, food safety controls, and cross-contamination risks.
Retail Facilities
Hygiene checks for retail locations, service points, food handling areas, storage points, and customer-facing facilities.
Hospitality Sites
Review of hygiene practices, housekeeping, food handling, staff behavior, cleaning records, and service-area risks.
Food Handling Areas
Checks for sanitation, cross-contamination risk, storage practice, temperature control where applicable, and staff hygiene.
Facility Operations
Review of cleaning arrangements, waste handling, maintenance condition, pest-control evidence, and corrective actions.
What the Audit Report Can Include
The exact report structure depends on the agreed scope and audit criteria. However, most audit reports include factual observations, evidence, findings, risks, and practical actions.
| Report Area | Typical Content |
|---|---|
| Audit Scope | Client request, site, supplier, facility, audited processes, criteria, documents reviewed, dates, and applicable limitations. |
| Audit Evidence | Records, interviews, site observations, photos where applicable, process checks, sampling notes, and objective evidence. |

| Risk and Impact | Potential effect on product quality, service delivery, compliance, hygiene, safety, continuity, or contractual performance. |
| Recommendations | Corrective action guidance, priority areas, follow-up needs, and practical next steps for the client or audited party. |
Audit Process
A clear audit process improves communication, reduces ambiguity, and helps both the client and audited party understand the purpose, scope, and expected output.
Confirm the Audit Request
First, Global Surveys reviews the client objective, supplier or facility details, location, timing, required criteria, and expected report output.
Define Scope and Criteria
Next, the team confirms the audit criteria, required documents, audit method, sampling approach, site access, and service conditions.
Prepare the Audit Plan
Then, the audit plan identifies the areas to be reviewed, interviews, documents, site walkthroughs, timing, and reporting expectations.
Conduct the Audit
During the audit, the team reviews evidence, observes processes, interviews relevant personnel, checks records, and records findings.
Issue the Audit Report
After the audit, Global Surveys provides the agreed report with findings, evidence, conclusions, risks, and recommendations.
Support Follow-Up
Finally, the client can use the report for supplier approval, corrective action follow-up, hygiene improvement, or decision-making.
