QAO's sourcing strategy aims to produce cost effective outcomes for our clients.

We balance our need for internal economies of scale and in-house expertise with the benefits of a competitive tender process for contract-out work.

To meet demands of key peak periods, QAO determines the optimal mix for audits to be delivered fully internally, and those that can be sub-contracted using audit service providers. Our in-house audits are carried out by QAO employees and are sometimes supplemented with contractors. Our contract-out audits are carried out by professional services firms, but managed, monitored and reviewed for quality by QAO.

We invite contract audit firms to register for our financial audit panel.
