With no intention of being disrespectful, it sounds like you're being asked to audit although you don't have any audit training or experience?

Hi.. thank you yodel, nothing to disrespect your reply and intention, but asking question does not mean that I do not have experience, every forum is a learning, I have asked to learn. Not only can auditor asks the questions, also the audit..

If you're doing an internal audit, it should be informed by your company's own requirements. Presumably, those internal requirements are based on requirements of the standard. BTW, "G Suite" is now Google Workspace.

The management system responsible for the design, delivery and upkeep of Google Apps received ISO 27001 certification over ten years ago according to this report:

So, it appears that you have no inherent problem using the “G-Suite” instead of Office 365.

The system itself (Google Workspace) may be Certified, but if it's not used in a compliant way by the organisation, then it won't comply with the standard. e.g if shared logons are used, this would fail basic access control requirements.
