It is not a cross reference between your management system and your customer’s. It is not a template that you fill in and claim compliance. API SPEC Q2 FOR AUDITING WHAT API SPEC Q2 IS It is about service quality and risk mitigation supported by validation and actual service provider performance. API SPEC Q2 FOR AUDITING Benefits of Standardization • Improves service related product reliability • Minimizes risk through identification, planning & controls • Identifies critical tasks that impact quality, safety and the environment • Minimizes service related risk and improves efficiencies • Improves communication between service providers and their suppliers and operators.
