Independent regulatory audits for the water industry
Certified drinking water and recycled water quality auditors servicing Australia.
Viridis Auditors is the audit practice of Viridis Consultants, a specialist water quality firm with over 20 years in the Australian water sector. We deliver third-party regulatory audits, internal audits and pre-audit gap analyses for water utilities, private water providers and regulators.
Our audits report compliance clearly and give you practical, prioritised opportunities for improvement, not a list of generic findings.
Our Services
We specialise in third-party regulatory audits of water quality management systems, operating licences and infrastructure. We also run internal audits and gap analyses to help you prepare for an upcoming regulatory audit.
Most clients engage us through a tender for a single audit. For utilities with several audits a year, an auditing service agreement can be more efficient: we manage the audit calendar, remind you three months before each audit falls due, and keep scope and reporting consistent from year to year.
