Internal audit

Engagements whose evidence is the platform's own trail

Each engagement has an objective, scope and tests with criteria. The audit agent runs the tests against the live record: population, sample, exceptions and the evidence cited. Exceptions become findings with condition, criteria and recommendation; the committee accepts them with management responses; closure needs evidence.
