Types of Assurance Procedures

There are two fundamental "things" to provide assurance procedures for: Processes, Configuration & Calibration. Assurance Procedures may be created to verify that a process executes to expectation, or the configuration or calibration of a tool or system achieves expectation.

• Process Assurance is verifying that some process, and the things outputs the process creates, obtain a specific outcomes.

• Configuration & Calibration Assurance is verifying that the settings of something you use, as a tool or implement, are in fact the expected settings.
