Planning the audit: It is integrating the elements. Understand the audit program to detail the steps to follow.
Investigation and examination: Through various means the auditor must ensure that correct and sufficient information is obtained.
Analysis and evaluation of the information obtained: Its purpose is to provide a synthesis.
Final report: Various elements must be taken into account. Who is going to read it? What will you have? How is it going to be structured?
