Management Audit Initiated at 2056. 4 .27 2067 BS directives Eleven years without directives ? imperfect directive:- Other than PSC scope? Meaning not clear Work performed by civil servant. Not office

policies Administrative work in place Customer satisfaction Timely reporting / monitoring / evaluation Better project management

China customer satisfaction

Legal and institutional arrangements Constitution (Karya bivajan and karya sampadan Rules) MoGA established. Work flow identified. Civil service Act Civil service Rules Management audit directives Management audit section at MoGA Approved Annual program backed by budget Annual karya talika (calender) developedin first trimester.

Legal / inst. arrangements Cabinet decisions on audit reports.QUALIFIED. Circular(s) to ministries Follow up circulars List updated at Mgmt. audit section(MoGA) for respondents and non respondents.

What next ? A clear understanding of PSC scoping Second edition of the directives (sharply needed) Management Audit section - well equipped ( fax, photocopy machine ,books and literature, vehicle, TADA, etc) Follow up meetings at MoGA in last 5 year annual reports Office chief is the responsible person to answer the audit queries. Audit report(s) do not index the personnel, just activities not performed.

Next….. Answer the question : why conducting Management Audit? For detecting corruption ? NVC /CIAA/OAG For monitoring ? NPC/OPMCM/Line Ministries Compliance ? OAG / PSC

Suggestions Auditee also need training. Manual to support directives is needed. Sometimes naming and rewarding performers produce good results. Audit is to be supporting, not harassing. Conduct audit as result based , not as monitoring. Where you work? Do not answer Mgmt section answer MANAGEMENT SECTION.
