This audit plan is the culmination of our planning efforts for Fiscal Year 2026. We developed the audits identified in this document after considering GSA’s strategic goals and performance measures, legal and regulatory requirements, and issues raised by GSA management, as well as our own assessment of challenges and risks facing GSA. Our goal in developing the Fiscal Year 2026 Audit Plan is to ensure we provide the audit oversight necessary to prevent and detect waste, fraud, and abuse in GSA programs and operations and make them more economical, efficient, and effective.
The audits identified in this plan represent our highest priorities. Collectively, these audits will assess many GSA programs, systems, operations, and internal controls; respond to requests from GSA management; and fulfill legislatively mandated audit requirements. This plan also provides time for our office to provide audit support to contracting officials in carrying out their procurement and administration responsibilities. Finally, this plan allots time for our continued support of the U.S. Department of Justice’s resolution of False Claims Act cases.
While the audit plan helps guide our independent oversight of GSA’s operations and programs, our work is not static, and our audits may be modified as new challenges and risks emerge throughout the year.
