Publication: Performance audit standards

The Performance Audit Standards aim to underpin performance audit work across Public Reporting Group. The standards are intended to provide a summary of good practice for overarching project issues, such as quality assurance; and for specific project stages, such as writing and delivering reports. The standards - which complement the Project Management Framework and Performance Audit Manual - clearly set out the expectations for all projects and will be used to hold staff to account for delivery to time, cost and quality.
