Resource allocation

Proper resource allocation ensures audits have what they need to succeed. Like budgeting for a project, understanding resource needs helps teams plan effectively and avoid bottlenecks.

Resource planning involves:

• Team time: Hours needed from each team member
• Tool access: Required software and platforms
• Documentation space: Where findings will be stored
• Meeting slots: When teams can review findings
• External help: Whether specialist expertise is needed

Understanding resource needs helps teams maintain regular work while conducting thorough audits.
