Course Outline


The conduct of the Baseline Assessment of Internal Control System (BAICS) is required for all local government units (province, city, municipal level) as mandated by the DBM. BAICS provides a starting point for internal audit strategic planning. It is an integral procedure in the internal audit cycle. BAICS must be carried out and implemented by the Internal Audit Unit (IAU) or Internal Audit Services (IAS). They must undertake BAICS on all Public Financial Management processes.

The knowledge gained from the results shall assist the Head of Agency or Offices in strengthening the internal control system as embodied in the DBM circular 2020-8 dated May 26, 2020 on the Revised Philippine Government Internal Audit Manual (RPGIAM). BAICS is a critical component in strategic planning, creating a budget reform roadmap and action plan.

Strengthening the internal controls (starting with BAICS) is also required when one is to access funding from institutions including ADB, DOF, DILG, etc.

The BAICS aims to:

1. Assist Internal Audit Services (either an internal audit unit, division or department) to gain a more comprehensive and thorough understanding of the agency's operations.

2. Identify and document the five components of the internal control system of the organization and all its Programs/ Projects/ Activities (PPAs).

3. Review key processes and controls on operations (OPS), support to operations (STO), and general administration and support (GAS).

4. Gather sufficient information on potential audit areas to be included in the IAS strategic plan.

Participants will be guided on the activities to be performed including completion of an Agency Internal Control Document (AICD) and other relevant templates and forms, administration of an Internal Control Questionnaire (lCQ)/ lnternal Control Checklist (lCC), and verification of results through narrative notes, flowcharts, walkthroughs and test controls.

This training will be of great help in preparing a Baseline Assessment Report (BAR) needed by the Head of Agency and the organization.

Tools and templates to be utilized during the BAICS training:

1 –    Agency Internal Control Documents (AICD)
2 –    Internal Control Checklist/ Questionnaire (ICC/ ICQ)
2A – Validation of Controls
2B – Compensating Control Work Sheet (CCWS)
3 –    Summary of Observations (SOB)
4 –    Narrative Procedures (NP)
5 –    Summary of Control Attributes (SCA)
6 –    Walkthrough (WT)

10 – Control Universe (CU)
11 – Review of Other Reports (ROR)
12 – Tally Sheet (TS)
13 – Flowchart (FC)
