4. 4 System development Life Cycle Standards The Systems Development Life Cycle procedures for new systems include these steps: –Identify the process –Understand what needs to be done –Consider alternative solutions –Select the best solution –Test the solution –Active or implement the solution –Maintain the solution

5. 5 Systems Planning Systems planning has proven to be cost effective, although it is tempting for the information systems technicians to skip – usually due to time pressures.

6. 6 Systems Analysis This phase includes surveys, if necessary and other fact-gathering steps. The step is documented by the system analysis report.

7. 7 Conceptual Design In this phase, the team will develop alternative systems that satisfy the system requirement identified during system analysis.

8. 8 Systems Evaluation and Selection This process seeks to identify the optimal solution from among the alternatives. It includes a feasibility study, cost-benefit analysis and the system selection report (documentation).

9. 9 Detailed Design This phase will produce a detailed description of the proposed system that satisfies system requirements identified during systems analysis and is in accordance with conceptual design.

10. 10 Systems Implementation At this point, the database structures are created and populated with data,applications are coded and tested (prior to going live), equipment is purchased and installed, employees are trained, the system is documented and the new system is installed. Once the final tests have been conducted, the system is placed in active use. This phase then would provide a post- implementation review, program flowcharts, program documentation and the user acceptance report.

11. 11 It also should include a budget variance analysis. The post-implementation review and budget analysis are critical follow-up processes that will be valuable to management decisions and future projects.

12. 12 Professional Development One of the critical success factors in internal audit professional development.

17. 17 Respinsibility and Authority The related authority provides the corporate auditor full access to all of the organization’s records, properties and personnel relevant to the subject under review. The corporate auditor should be free to review and apprise policies, plans, procedures and records.

18. 18 The internal auditor’s responsibilities should be: –To inform and advise management and to discharge this responsibility in a manner that is consistent with the codes of ethics of the IIA and the ISACA (information systems audits). –To coordinate his/her activities with others so as to best achieve audit objectives and the objectives of the organization.
