Audit Follow-Up Review Template

Document whether a management action was truly implemented and is working, from evidence received and retesting to a clear close, partially close or keep-open decision with rationale.

What you'll find inside

  • Header fields: finding ID, original rating, action owner, original due date, review date and auditor
  • Implementation: action committed, evidence received and implementation completeness
  • Effectiveness: control now operating, test performed, and exceptions or residual risk
  • Closure decision: close, partially close or keep open, rationale, and new due date or escalation, plus a working table
  • A worked example: a workflow deployed but 2 of 10 changes still lacked callback evidence, kept open for a 30-day retest
  • Completion and sign-off page: final quality check, prepared by / reviewed by, final conclusion and outstanding follow-up

Best for

  • Internal Auditors
  • Senior Internal Auditors
