I disagree.
Auditors do not set standards, nor do they enforce them.
Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) set standards (possibly with checklists).
Auditors check to see which ones are being followed, and (if properly done)
report to compliance officers.
Compliance Officers enforce standards, or, at least, report to management who
is not following standards.
So, the correct question is:
"Of what value, did the SME think that was"?
