Assess and mitigate risks to an acceptable level to improve processes.

Addition Design has implemented an Internal Audit Program to ensure that the ongoing suitability and conformity of the QMS is assured. The QMS has the full support of the Company Owner, the Management Team and staff. This document and the QMS Manual remain available in the Addition Design document system for reference.
