Abstract
The Department of Auditor General of Pakistan is the constitutional institution that works to support parliamentary oversight at the federal and provincial levels. Improvements in the Government’s audit processes will contribute to sound financial management, transparency, and accountability in the use of public funds. Improved auditing will contribute to better monitoring and oversight of SDGs and service delivery, by legislature. DAGP is established to ensure that the Executive complies with the various laws and Schedules of Authorized Expenditure passed by the Legislature in letter and spirit. The research is based on transforming the traditional audit cycle to a digitized process; the challenges being faced and the anticipated results of successful implementation of digitized Audit. Accountability in public sector organizations is not only necessary for financial governance but it is also imperative for improvement in public service delivery. This role of accountability has primarily been assigned to the Department of Auditor General of Pakistan. Keeping in view the increased role of Audit in public financial management DAGP has taken a bigger reform initiative this time which is automation of the whole audit Cycle.
