TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
No standards, a comparison with other companies in the industry should be enough.

Subject: RE: Quality assessment
Is there a specific ISO or other standard against which the docs should be audited? An industry-specific standard can be helpful in this regard. Otherwise, a consultant is likely to bring their own "best practice" (ha!) criteria.
