Internal Audit Department Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

An effective business process is built on a set of well-defined and clearly stated business objectives. Key objectives articulate the ideal performance results that the company expects from that process. To monitor a business process so that it stays focused on reaching the key objectives, the company chooses appropriate performance measures. Careful selection of the performance measures takes a company a long way toward improving a business process.

This tool includes three sample documents that provide guidance internal audit and management can use to evaluate their performance measurements.
