All - I have a few questions related to Out of Box Audit processes - and the definition of said processes. 1.) How do each of your organizations define "Out of Box Audit"? 2.) Does the definition vary depending on the product? For example, at a system level (computer, printer, etc) where one would possibly be sending out 50 - 100 units, would the audit process differ from, say, a shipment of a 1,000 commodity items such as modules? 3.) When performing audits, do you adhere to the standard 1.0 or .065 sample table - or do a flat rate of say 15 - 25% of outgoing product? 4.) What process steps are included in the Out of Box Audit process? Again, does that depend on the outgoing product - or is the exact same system instituted regardless of what the product is? I appreciate your assistance.
