PPMP20010 Executing & Closing Projects Assessment 2 Part 1

The project audit report is a tool used to substantiate to the stakeholders of a project that the goals and objectives of the project are being met and important items or deliverables are being produced by the project. This audit report is a vital communication tool that is used as the basis for ensuring that the stakeholders acknowledge the project success and accept the outcomes.

Kerzner (2017) in Section 11.32 identifies five different types of project audits – performance, compliance, quality, exit, and best practices. Audits do not have to occur at the end of a project but can occur during the project life cycle as health checks and quality audits.

Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2 (2017) states that an audit review is typically undertaken at the end of each stage and at the end of the project. Kerzner (2017) in Section 11.32 states the audits can be scheduled or random and can be performed by in-house personnel or external examiners.

Directing Successful Projects with PRINCE2 (2009) Section 9.3.1 identifies that there are four metrics that may be valuable – progress, quality, change and risk. Each auditable category should have a value to the project and future projects.
