Auditing Services

---

We provide expert auditing services that offer assurance, support compliance, and promote continuous improvement across high-risk industries.

 Our audits are designed to go beyond ticking boxes - they help businesses uncover systemic issues, identify risks, and enhance operational performance.

Led by renowned auditor Kirsty Baxter, with over 25 years of experience in highly regulated sectors such as rail, construction, and transport, our auditing services help organisations meet their regulatory, accreditation, and contractual obligations. We focus on fostering a culture of learning and improvement, ensuring that findings drive meaningful insight rather than just compliance.

Our Auditing Expertise

We offer a comprehensive range of auditing services that provide clarity, accountability, and assurance helping your business meet regulatory requirements while encouraging best practices:

• ISO Standards Audits: Conducting audits in line with internationally recognised ISO standards (e.g., ISO 45001, ISO 9001, ISO 14001) to ensure compliance, continuous improvement, and operational integrity.

• Rail Safety Legislation Audits: Ensuring adherence to the Rail Safety National Law (RSNL) and other industry-specific safety regulations to promote operational safety and compliance.

• Management’s System Audits: Reviewing management systems to assess their effectiveness in meeting regulatory and operational requirements.

• Pre-Certification Audits: Assessing readiness for certification, identifying gaps, and highlighting areas of non-compliance before formal audits.

• Supplier & Contractor Audits: Evaluating supplier and contractor performance against safety, quality, and contractual obligations to ensure alignment with your operational standards.

A Systems View of Findings for Continuous Improvement

Baxter Consulting approaches auditing through a systems lens - examining the interconnected elements of your operations to provide a holistic view of organisational performance. Our findings highlight how different parts of your organisation interact, revealing not just isolated issues but broader systemic challenges.

We work collaboratively with your team to present best practice approaches based on industry benchmarks and regulatory expectations. This approach allows you to make informed decisions and develop your own strategies for improvement, ensuring ownership of outcomes remains with your organisation.

By engaging with Baxter Consulting, your organisation will benefit from:

• A comprehensive, system-wide perspective of operational performance.
• Insights that reveal underlying systemic issues, not just surface-level symptoms.
• A focus on continuous improvement through constructive discussions around best practices.
• A collaborative approach that respects your team’s expertise and decision-making autonomy.
