Delivering Value - Strategic Plan 2015 to 2019
Delivering Value, the strategic plan of the Office of the Auditor General (the OAG) captures how we want to take forward the work of the Office to ensure that we meet our statutory obligations by driving lasting improvements in how Government manages scarce resources in the delivery of government programs and services.
The core activities of the OAG continue to be the financial audit of government and its agencies, and the provision of performance audit reports to the Parliament. Holding Government to account for its spending and for providing value for money in public services remains a key focus, but this is balanced by our vision and mission of ensuring our work promotes good governance, transparency and accountability of public funds used by the Cayman Islands Government. We have captured our plans under three broad strategic objectives:
The achievement of these objectives present the OAG with some challenges, but they are important in ensuring that we are a well respected and effective provider of public audit to the Cayman Islands, and seen as a leader in our field within the Caribbean, and more widely within the public audit community.
Our Vision, Mission and Values
In developing our strategic plan we developed a clear vision and mission for the work that the Office of the Auditor General carries out, along with the four core values that underpin our vision.
Our Vision
"To help the public service spend wisely"
Our Mission
"To deliver independent, high quality public sector audit that promotes accountability, transparency and integrity in the use of public resources"
The four core values underpinning our vision and mission are:
Our vision, mission and values provide an overarching framework under which we developed the strategic objectives and related activities that make up our Strategic Plan. Our vision and values are also underpinned by a Code of Conduct, and policies on ethics and independence which outline the standards of behavior that are expected by all OAG staff.
