IDI Work stream Professional SAIs 2024-2029
The ability of a SAI to act in a professional manner, and deliver high quality and high impact audit work that meet applicable standards, is the foundation of the value and benefits of a SAI.
We will promote and support professionalisation of SAIs and deliver value in four key areas: competent SAI auditors; effective SAI leaders; professional audit practices and enhancing public trust in SAIs.
IDI will set up ‘The Centre for SAI Audit Professionals’ as a place for SAI auditors to come together to grow their professional audit competence. It will be a place to experiment, innovate, learn, get professional qualifications, strive for excellence, network and be future-ready. The activities of the Centre will be scaled
Shared Service Arrangements: System of Audit Quality Management
A system of audit quality management is fundamental to high quality audits. IDI plans to work with stakeholders, especially INTOSAI regions, to facilitate shared service arrangements for SAIs to establish and maintain robust systems of audit quality management. This goes beyond capacity development support, potentially towards a long-term shared service arrangement. It will build on the revised ISSAI 140. We have tentative plans to start with certified pools of audit quality management facilitators. Such pools can help their own SAIs and regions and be a part of global pools across regions.
up based on demand and availability of resources.
Helping SAIs in sustainably developing professional audit practices will also enable them to raise their audit profile and gain greater credibility and public trust. As a part of Facilitating Audit Impact (FAI), we will help SAIs set up strong stakeholder coalitions in their audit practice including key stakeholders like audited entities, civil society organisations, citizens and parliamentarians. We will continue our strong partnership with INTOSAI bodies and explore and grow our partnerships with professional bodies, including professional accountancy organisations and academia for developing pathways for professional development of SAI auditors.
