The CAE wants a maintained list of potential future audits across civic departments, not only the one engagement in flight. What should Audit maintain?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
An audit universe is the master calendar of places you might inspect—not just the job you’re on today. Keep a plan of potential engagements across departments so next year’s work isn’t a scramble. A lonely closed engagement isn’t a universe.
Full Explanation
Audit planning includes maintaining an audit universe or multi-engagement plan that inventories potential engagements across the organization and supports prioritization. That lifecycle object sits above any single in-flight engagement. Reusing one closed engagement, Knowledge-only notes, or CMDB diagrams alone do not constitute an audit universe/plan.
