A performance audit can be undertaken in a single agency or as a cross‐agency audit involving multiple agencies and a commonly performed function, or where more than one agency is involved in program delivery. Performance audits typically give consideration to the efficiency and effectiveness of agency administration and consistency with legislative and policy settings.
