Dear Friends,

I would like to answer the question as below:

Inspection is an observation.

Inspection is to examine closely any equipment or facility. It may be formal(with a plan and a check-list) or informal.Examples: 1. Inspection of a Fire Tender with a checklist for its operability, worthiness of its fire water pump , fire monitor etc.2. Inspection of the tank shell for finding any deformity, thinning etc.

Audit is a process of evaluation and to measure performances that is based on Standards & Guidelines, identifies the compliance & non-compliance based on Standards and is neutral.

There are three types of audit namely:

1) Legal Compliance Audit

2) Internal Standards Audit

3) System Audit

Audit is the verification of a Process, a System or a Procedure.

Examples:1. Audit of Firewater pump house.

2. Audit of a Process Plant

3. Audit of Quality Control Laboratory.

Here the systems and processes are verified with respect to a documented procedure. Thus the audit of a quality control laboratory will involve the verification of the existence of the quality control procedure, sampling procedure, reporting procedure etc.
