What can the agency expect during the annual audit?

The Audit Services Team is responsible for performing on-site reviews of agency delegated audit authority, business procurement card and fixed asset inventory functions. Audits of agency delegated audit authority and business procurement card functions will be conducted on an annual basis. Audits of agency fixed asset inventory items will be conducted on a three-year cycle. 

• The Audit Procedures document formalizes audit procedures and emphasizes communications and the reporting of audit findings. Individual sections of the document address audit planning and agency notification, audit opening conference and audit fieldwork procedures (including documentation of audit findings), audit closing conference and preparation of a letter of audit findings.
