Overview

Vendor/Contract audits require a certain skill set to understand the terms and conditions of a contract between a Company and any given vendor where products or services are outsourced. Understanding the risks that are inherent within them is the first step in developing audit objectives and steps. The primary focus of the audit is the vendor (third party) activities pertinent to a contract. A majority of the fieldwork on these types of audits will likely be performed at the Vendor's office and this is a significant advantage to the auditor.

Areas Covered in the Session :

Identify and collect essential pre-audit background information
A basic understanding of the most popular types of contract terms and conditions
The process of reviewing contracts to develop audit objectives
