Internal Audit Advisory Committee Application details HERE!

Doña Ana County employs an internal auditor who reports to the County Manager’s Office.  The mission of Internal Audits is to add value by providing independent, objective and accurate feedback and consulting services to management.  The Internal Audit Function is made up of the internal auditor and the Internal Audit Advisory Committee, which consists of volunteers who serve in an advisory role to the internal auditor.  The Internal Audit Function seeks to proactively identify risks, evaluate internal controls, and make recommendations that will improve County operations.

The Internal Audit Office helps to improve County government performance and accountability by:

• Assessing the reliability of financial and operating information
• Evaluating the efficiency and effectiveness of department operations
• Testing the adequacy of controls for preventing, detecting, and reducing fraud, waste, and abuse, along with the safeguarding of County assets
• Verifying compliance with policies, procedures, and regulations
• Advising and providing County management with ways to improve internal controls and become more aware of the risk/control environment
