The Office’s Audit Status Database, the Auditors’ Homepage, and ASD Online (collectively referred to as the ASD) is a bespoke system that its internal Information Systems Group has developed and maintained over the last 10 years.
The ASD maintains the definitive list of public entities that fall within the Auditor-General’s mandate. Critically, it holds the vital information that the Office needs to carry out audits, for example sector, location, balance date, and relationships with other entities. It also holds details of all appointed auditors and audit firms – past and present; detailed information about the audits undertaken including hours, fees, audit returns; and opinions.
While the ASD is good at holding all the critical information and relationships needed to operate the allocation and tracking of annual audits, it is poor at capturing any other types relationships associated with the audit process (noting however that it was never designed to do so).
The Office operates two extranets that Appointed Auditors (AAs) access. The ASD Online is the portal through which AAs upload audit return information and documents, essentially the Office’s “inbound” portal. The Auditors’ Homepage is used to provide AAs information, essentially the Office’s “outbound” portal.
Both extranets are completely separate to the ASD itself, and neither provide the functionality that the Office needs.
The Office considers that the functionality delivered by the three applications is no longer adequate, and is interested in options available to replace all three.
