The Ohio Auditor of State Office oversees a comprehensive selection process for appropriate firms who are interested in performing government audits on behalf of the office.


State Performance Audit Firm Registration
PERFORMANCE AUDITS

On April 5, 2011, Senate Bill 4 was signed into law and gave the Auditor of State’s Office the opportunity to change the way Ohio government does business. This legislation requires that the Auditor of State’s Office conduct performance audits of state agencies to streamline agency operations and ensure optimal use of tax dollars.

The Auditor of State's Office currently does not have any performance audits available for bid (updated February 2012).

FINANCIAL AUDITS

IPA firms must register with the Ohio Auditor of State’s Office by completing the Audit Firm Registration Request.

Recently we announced updates to our current contracting process and hosted a training webinar to facilitate introduction to the improvements that have been made. For firms that wish to access training resources, or listen to the Webinar again, they will remain accessible on this page.

NEW !! At the end of the webinar, a question and answer session was held, and we encouraged all firms to submit any specific questions. The list of frequently asked questions and answers is now available.
