Abstract

One of the primary responsibilities of an auditor is to ensure that things are done as they are supposed to be done; in other words, that control of a process, procedure, or project is maintained. By establishing a proper control process, the auditor can assess compliance to the desired system and provide recommendations for corrective actions to get the procedure back on track.
