•Conducting the audit – Workshop environment
•Post audit activities– development of Systems Improvement Plans (SIP)
![Page 14: RMS – a collaborative approach Presentation Lyn Dare & Stephen Larmour Authorisation & Audit Comcare.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649ca55503460f9496755f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Participant feedback
• Case Managers were comfortable with the process and the manner in which the findings were analysed and reported
• The audit findings provided an independent assessment which
support their own assessment in relation to gaps in their system
• Provided an independent assessment of ‘best practice’ initiatives
• Opportunity to take a step back from day to day business and look
at what systems exist
![Page 15: RMS – a collaborative approach Presentation Lyn Dare & Stephen Larmour Authorisation & Audit Comcare.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649ca55503460f9496755f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Participant feedback
• Did not feel prepared for the audit
• Senior leaders needed to be made aware of the purpose of the
audit.
• Audit program should extended to cover a cross-section of the
organisation’s RMS
• Support required in developing and implementing SIP

‘gap analysis’ of exiting systems using an audit methodology

Federal Workplaces and easy to use
