Abstract: Chart auditing is of equal value to original measurement work. The monetary value of potentiai volume and BTU adjustments justify the existence of an audit group or the addition of audit function. A measurement department that delivers only original measurement misses the opportunity to increase the contribution it makes to the company served using existing skills and equipment. However, measurement skills represent only one of the ingredients necessary for a successful chart audit function. The components other than measurement skills constitute the subject I will pursue. Because the department for which I work is an example of the application of many of these components, it will serve as the model for this presentation. Elements covered are: * The reliable access to information concerning possible metering points to audit so that audit can begin even before initial delivery. The routine comparison of original volumes to corresponding outside company volumes made after monthly close so that potential adjustments can be isolated and pursued. These comparisons also reduce unnecessary chart auditing. A reliable system to track audit charts and statements received for audit, and the careful handling of these charts while in office. Methods practiced routinely to isolate the causes of measurement discrepancies.
