AUDIT
Introduction
Evaluation of a project are two types
Pre-Project Evaluation (Project Appraisal)
estimation for the future (Cost & Completion Time)
Post-Project Evaluation (Project Audit)
assessment for the past (Actual Cost & Actual
Completion Time)
Objectives
Building up an information base to help proper
estimation of project cost & time.
Educating all those concerned with the project about
the realities of project management.
Establishing correct time-cost relationship.
Creation of appropriate standards for work based on
suitable work techniques.
Sharing of project audit information among all
concerned
In order to build up better understanding and better
comprehension of the project and its problem areas.
Lapses could be avoided in the future.
Phases
Two phases:
1) Immediately after the
completion of the project.
2) After lapse of some time (i.e. 2
or 3 years) since the completion
of the project.
Technical Evaluation
Financial Evaluation
Economic Evaluation
Technical Evaluation
Evaluation of quality & quantity of production, the
operating costs in production etc.
Comparison done between what is presented in
the feasibility report/detailed project report and
what has been the actual achievement.
Plant operation is to be studied by varying the
input parameters and observing the output till the
production is stabilized at the maximum level.
Evaluation of utilities consumed by the plant
(power, fuel, water, steam, consumables, spares
etc.)
Financial Evaluation
Evaluation is done for the following costs to verify that
the actual is as per the estimates / projections made at
the time of appraisal:
Project Cost under various heads.
Operating Costs.
Profitability.
Cash Flow and Fund Flow.
Sources & Application of Funds.
Economic Evaluation
Evaluation is most difficult since many subjective
aspects are involved and are difficult to be quantified.
Evaluator has to identify the Social Costs and Benefits
of the project.
Relevant for Public Sector & Community Development
projects social objective in mind.
Social Cost Benefit Analysis (SCBA) Technique
Analyze whether the social benefits anticipated are
achieved.
Analyze whether there is any adverse effects which were not
originally unforeseen have the nature of adding to the social
cost.
