Knowledge-Based Audit Enhances Information Flow
The KBA audit methodology is a structured framework for applying complex industry specific auditing standards. The results of one set of procedures become input for another. These linkages provide evidence you might use to modify the nature, timing, or extent of other planned audit procedures.
By following the KBA audit methodology, you gain a deeper understanding of your clients. With all of the information at your fingertips, you’ll be able to make informed risk assessments using your own professional judgment and expertise.
Using the KBA audit methodology, Knowledge Tools:
-
Supports the flow of information among the engagement team
-
Enables linkages and tailored procedures with flexible, easy-to-use tools
-
Ensures consistency and standardization across all published documents
Communications Hub Facilitates Iterative Audit Approach
The Knowledge-Based Audit methodology utilizes a set of integrated procedures, from pre-engagement through evaluating, concluding and reporting. The results from each audit stage feed into the Communication Hub, which enables audit team members to easily view summaries of the significant matters, risks and findings discovered in the audit. This design ensures that important information is not overlooked or hidden in the details of numerous checklists and forms. This helps you to meet industry specific auditing standards.
Documents and Practice Aids
-
KBA documents contain steps and procedures that are required by Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS).
-
Audit Program documents guide you through related steps and procedures.
-
Practice Aids help you complete steps or processes outlined in other documents.
-
Correspondence document templates include engagement letters and confirmation requests.
