Re: County-wide Risk Assessment
As a precursor to the annual audit plan our office has put together a county-wide risk
assessment questionnaire. It is our goal to collaborate with stakeholders and to obtain
meaningful feedback.
We are asking the executive and legislative branches respectively to support us by
administering this forthcoming assessment to all county departments and divisions and
encourage participation in, and turnaround of, the survey within 10 business days to better
assist us in compiling an accurate risk-based spectrum of prospective engagements. The
survey will allow us to better understand the risks, resources and needs of departments, as
well as challenge the departments and divisions to think critically about their operations
while responding to multiple choice, scalar value, and open-ended questions.
The survey is approximately 70 questions in length covering four distinct risk categories and
is estimated to take between 35 and 45 minutes. We plan on sending a hyperlink to push
respondents to the website surveymonke y.corn where departments and divisions can
complete the survey at their leisure.
We respectfully request that a breach be authorized to submit this communication after the
July 16, 2021, submission deadline and be placed on the August 3, 2021, Finance
Committee agenda for a brief presentation. If there are any questions that we can answer to
support sound decision making please feel free to reach out and we are happy to elaborate.
