Question catalogs: use standard catalogues or create your own

The question catalogue is the substantive backbone of every audit – and in IMS-Audit Cloud you shape it exactly to your needs. Ready-made standard catalogues for ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, IATF 16949, EN 9100 / AS9100 and many more are sold separately; you can just as easily create your own catalogues or conveniently import proven checklists via Excel. Structure, categories, and flexible rating schemes adapt to your audit methodology.

In detail

What Question Catalogues offers

Ready-made standard catalogues for ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, IATF 16949, EN 9100 / AS9100 and many more – sold separately
Create your own question catalogues – tailored to your processes and audit focus areas
Conveniently import proven catalogues and checklists via Excel
Organise catalogues clearly into categories and sections
Multilingual question catalogs: translations live centrally in the master catalogue, generated automatically via DeepL on request
New: answers in the audit question catalogue are translated automatically into each reader's display language (DeepL integration) – the original is always preserved, translations are marked as “machine-translated”
Flexible rating schemes – matched to your audit methodology
Cross-references between questions (“See also”): link related questions within the same catalogue – during the audit one click jumps to the target question, and the references travel along when a catalogue is duplicated or loaded into an audit
Documents directly on the question: drag & drop evidence onto the question row – actions raised from the question show them as links
Manage your catalogues centrally and keep them up to date
The selected catalogue provides the guiding thread through the audit
In everyday audit work

How it works in practice

For an upcoming ISO 9001 audit you use the matching standard catalogue – sold separately – or assemble your own catalogue from existing questions. You import your proven Excel checklist in just a few steps and organise it into categories so nothing slips through during the audit. You configure the rating scheme exactly the way your audit methodology requires. Once the catalogue is ready, it is set for execution and provides the guiding thread, question by question.
