Internal Audit Charter, Independence & Board Governance Cycle
Runs on one Audit item created per governance cycle (audit_type: internal; scope set to the internal-audit charter/independence/board-governance cycle for the period) — the workflow instance attaches to that cycle item and writes to it throughout. The internal audit function and its board-approved charter — a Policy item (policy_type: charter) with its own version lineage — already exist and are reviewed, reaffirmed, or amended here, never recreated. The cycle as a decision-aware procedure: the CAE delivers functional reporting to the audit committee, affirms organizational independence in writing and treats any impairment, reviews and reapproves the board mandate and charter with its unrestricted-access provisions, runs the executive session and committee action on the CAE and the plan and budget, executes the stakeholder communication plan, and retains the governance evidence. Consumes upstream: closed assurance-engagement records (Audit items with their linked Issue findings) produced by the individual engagement workflows, the recommendation-tracking register (Issue items), and the prior cycle's carry-forward (open Issue items plus the prior run's carry-forward list). Named deliverables: the CAE functional reporting pack, the written organizational-independence affirmation, the reaffirmed or reapproved audit charter, the audit-committee minutes and resolution records, the stakeholder communication log, and the control-linked governance evidence set. In scope: the board-governance cycle for the internal audit function itself — charter, independence, committee reporting, and stakeholder communication; out of scope: the individual assurance engagements whose results feed the committee report, which run under their own workflows. Terminal by design: no downstream workflow is chained from this cycle; open threads carry forward to seed the next run of this same cycle.
