Audit of acquisition card use .: D58-144/2006E-PDF

This report presents the results of an assurance audit of acquisition card use within the Department of National Defence. In fiscal year 2004/05, acquisition cards were used for 350,000 transactions totalling approximately $139 million. The purpose of the audit was to assess compliance with current policy requirements, to determine if opportunities exist for enhanced controls and to examine enablers and impediments to increased use. While not always compliant with the letter of policy, users are taking a common sense approach to managing the cards and, for the most part, are compliant with the intent of policy. In some cases, policy requirements should be re-examined and/or stated more concisely.
