Ensuring Effective Post-Implementation Performance

Our System Post-Implementation Audit Work Program provides a detailed framework for conducting post-implementation audits on a variety of systems. It is designed to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of a system, ensuring that it meets the intended business needs and complies with established procedures. This tool includes three samples that outline specific audit objectives, procedures and key contacts involved in the audit process. Each sample serves as a guide for auditors, helping them evaluate different aspects of the system such as resource utilization, access controls, data integrity and security configurations.

Sample 1 focuses on confirming current resource utilization with key users, verifying access restrictions to the application, ensuring data integrity in processing and interface utilization, and confirming that change control procedures are followed. Sample 2 aims to evaluate productivity resource utilization, excluding data integrity testing, and emphasizes appropriate access restrictions and user responsibility awareness. Sample 3 includes an overview of the ERP environment and an assessment of security controls. Overall, this document facilitates a structured approach to post-implementation audits, covering all critical areas of system performance and compliance.

Audit steps include:

  • Identify individuals with security administration responsibilities over the system.
  • Determine the location of the key productivity technology infrastructure and verify that access is limited to authorized personnel.
  • Determine whether the ERP production environment is connected to other ERP or non-ERP systems.
  • Review evidence that corroborates the responses to the previous inquiries by examining the corresponding documentation.
