Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to audit process control alarms. An example disclosed method includes identifying components in the process control system that correspond to alarms to be audited. The example method also includes if a query to request a status of a particular one of the alarms to be audited is not in a status update queue, generating a query associated with the audit report request to request the status of the particular one of the alarms from the corresponding component. Otherwise, if the query to request the status of a particular one of the alarms to be audited is in the status update queue, associating the audit report request to the query. The example method also includes transmitting, via a process control system bus, the queries to be designated as low priority.
