1.2.4 Reporting the audit results

Following the conclusion of the audit, it is usual to report in two ways:

• Verbal
  report at the close of the audit, highlighting the observations and tentative
  conclusions; and
• Written report shortly afterward, once the calculations and
  verified conclusions have been made available.

The audit report will typically
contain:

General information consisting of descriptions of the objective(s)
and scope of the audit; location and time (duration); the personnel and resources
used; the foundry operating conditions at the time of the audit; general observations;
difficulties encountered in completing the measurements and calculations; comments
on accuracy, particularly as it pertains to instruments, their maintenance
and other identified work that could increase accuracy; and caveats;

• Main body
  of the report with energy usage data, calculations and balances;
• Evaluating
  conclusions; and
• Recommendations.
