Internal Audit

The Internal Audit department adds value to the City and its stakeholders by providing objective and relevant assurance and advice, and contributing to the effectiveness and efficiency of the City’s programs, services and processes.

Internal Audit Services:

• Performance/Operational Audits (Risk Based) - Objectively and systematically examine the City’s programs, functions and activities. These audits include measuring and assessing the ongoing performance and operation of management while focusing on management’s key objectives and risks.

• Compliance Audits - Designed to review and evaluate compliance with established policies and procedures as well as any relevant statutory and/or legal requirements.

• In Year Requests for Audit Services – Services that usually involve an examination or investigation of specific components of an operation or a program. These requests may include forensic or special investigations and may result from requests from Council, the City Manager, and Commissioners or from information received from employees, vendors or citizens.

• Advisory Services – These are generally performed at the specific request of an engagement client. The nature and scope of consulting engagements are subject to agreement with the client and are intended to add value by improving governance, risk management, and control processes.
