We have completed a review of our Quality Assurance Manual first published in 2015. It is now in line with the INTOSAI Quality Assurance and Control standards, the International Standard on Quality Control and best practice.
It contains additional information on peer reviews and how to conduct quality control over the work of sub-contractors. It distinguishes between quality assurance and quality control and also shows the steps that are required for quality assurance functions to be established.
We used a very similar version of the manual for the Quality Control and Assurance workshop in March this year. Participants can use workshop training material (accessible on our learning platform) with the new manual to help set up their own quality assurance and control arrangements within their SAIs.
We encourage our members to adopt the manual or use it as a reference point for your work.
