Preparing for an Internal Control review

Before we perform a review, an introductory memo is emailed to the department head. This memo requests some preliminary information that typically includes:

  • Organizational chart
  • Departmental policies and procedures
  • Fund center number(s) used by the department for recording revenue and expenses
  • List of areas that you consider to be a risk or concern

In addition, it is helpful if your staff is made aware of the review and notified that we will be there as a business partner to help assess the internal controls in the department.
