This requirement exists to ensure reporting certification status, exceptions, findings, expiry dates, and material changes to stakeholders is consistently governed, documented, and capable of producing reliable assurance. Without it, audit activities may be inconsistent, difficult to evidence, or insufficient to support management, regulatory, and stakeholder decisions.
Document the required reporting certification status, exceptions, findings, expiry dates, and material changes to stakeholders; assign accountable roles and approval points; define minimum records and evidence; apply the approved audit methodology and risk criteria; and retain evidence of execution and review. Periodically review the process for changes in organizational risk, regulatory expectations, and audit scope.
