I've audited a few shops and I've seen both dirty and clean shops. Look at
the equipment and their capabilities. However, one theory I kept in mind is
"Dirty shop=dirty boards". If they respect their environment, they probably
respect their product.

 Hi all,
 What type of questions should you ask when completing an audit on a board
 shop?
 We have been supplied with, and have rejected boards for various serious
 issues and we are now going to audit their processes but are unsure of
 what
 to ask.
 I know Earl Moon has made a document but I can't locate it.
 Any help is really appreciated as well as the correct answers to the
 questions.
 Thanks and have a nice weekend.
