    We are a very small company, just four employees, and I need to hire someone to perform an internal audit. I am just outside Boston, MA. Does anyone know where I could find a listing of independent contractors? Unfortunately the two I have used the previous two years are unavailable and the person I had scheduled for this year fell through.

    Thanks,
    Garrett

    Check the NQA website for local consultants (or call the sales people) - they're in Acton, MA. I know there are a few locally who can do this work.

    Thank you for the recommendation. I visited the NQA site and completed the form regarding consultants, but I did not see a listing there.

    They used to display a searchable database. Not sure why not now. I'd strongly recommend calling to speak with John Cross or one of his sales staff for details. Tell them I sent you.

    Thanks Andy. Appreciate the reference. In the mean time I think I've found someone, ironically they do audits for NQA.
