Internal Audit

Internal Audit Section

The Internal Audit Section provides independent, objective assurance and consulting services that are designed to add value and improve the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's (DEP) operations. It helps DEP accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate the effectiveness of risk management, controls and governance processes. The vision of the Internal Audit Section is to promote excellence within DEP through improved efficiency, effectiveness and accountability. 

Internal Audit Section Services

The Internal Audit Section conducts financial, compliance, electronic data processing, and performance audits, as well as management reviews of DEP programs and activities. The Director of Auditing coordinates the development of an Annual Audit Plan, which identifies areas within DEP for review using risk assessment criteria. Both a long-range plan and one-year plan are included in the Annual Audit Plan.

Auditors report and recommend corrective actions for control deficiencies or non-compliance with laws, directives, policies or agreements to assist agency program's success. The Internal Audit Section also reviews performance measures to determine if data reporting is valid and reliable. Other services include organizational assessments, investigative support, research, management advisory, and review of audits received by DEP.
