Resource Type: Toolkit

The Internal assurance Toolkit (IAT) is a strategic approach to strengthen corporate governance, and robust decision making. It is a process designed to improve the rigour and discipline in procurement, commissioning, change management and contract management, particularly for projects/programmes of work that don’t warrant an external review.

• Can you strengthen corporate governance?
• Have you reduced the risk of nasty surprises, project failures, and increased the quality of work across the authority?
• Will you provide increased transparency on the state of programmes and projects?
• Did you embed a culture of continued improvement?
• Are you increasing best practice within your authority?

If your answer is yes to some or all of the above, then your Authority should seriously consider joining the new Local Partnerships Internal Assurance Toolkit (IAT) community
