Welcome

to the Bureau of Audits' web site.

The Bureau of Audits performs the auditing function for the executive branch of State Government. The Bureau provides the Director of Administration with an independent appraisal and evaluation of the effectiveness of financial and operational control through objective analyses, evaluations, and recommendations on operations, systems, controls, and contracted services. The primary activities of the Bureau can be classified as internal auditing and management advisory services. Comments and recommendations included in audit reports provide a basis for sound business decisions, improved operations, and identifying cost saving areas. Additional responsibilities include: (1) auditing special purpose funds, (2) conducting performance audits and special projects, (3) providing consulting services and investigations at the request of the Governor or department directors, (4) participating as advisors in policy-making meetings, (5) providing emergency accounting and auditing services to cities and towns, and (6) reviewing and evaluating all state department and agency Financial Integrity and Accountability Reports.

I hope you will find this web site helpful and informative.
