NAC develops Human Resource Management Strategy 2019-2024
2019
This is the first Human Resources Strategic Plan (HRSP) for the National Audit Chamber of South Sudan (NAC) covering the fiscal years 2019-2024. This HRSP is largely informed by the strategic goals that were set in the NAC Strategic Development Plan for the calendar years 2019-2024.
The HRSP was generated through a consultative process involving stakeholders internal and external to NAC. The Plan was developed based on benchmarking, and inputs from stakeholders especially the staff and management of NAC and representatives of the Development Partner. It is based on the model prescribed to by INTOSAI and AFROSAI-E, the international professional organizations ofo which NAC is a member. The HRSP contains well defined focus area, strategic objectives, actionable strategies, performance measurement and indicators, and factors that could hinder achievement of the set targets.
This is the second Performance Audit Manual for the National Audit Chamber (NAC). This manual is customized based on the AFROSAI-E Performance Audit Handbook 2016. The first NAC manual was produced in 2013.
The mandate of the NAC to conduct performance audit is regulated by the South Sudan NAC Act 2011, article 15 - Value for Money Audit (VFM). The Auditor General can examine the appropriateness, adequacy and quality of the inputs made in the policy formulation by the MDAs, etc., and in the implementation concerning such policy choices and formulations.
This is the first stakeholder communication strategy for the National Audit Chamber of South Sudan (NAC). It covers the calendar years 2019-2024.
This Stakeholder Engagement Strategy is largely informed by the NAC strategic goals that were set in the Strategic Development Plan which covered the calendar years 2019-2024.
This strategy presents systematized documentation to remind ourselves in the Chamber what we must do, when and how. It is our internal reference guide for delivering the core operational services, for internal management, and to be recognized as a centre of Audit excellence by our citizens. All NAC staff are committed to owning the Strategy and therefore are expected to ensure its full implementation.
