The Annual Audit Program tab of the Internal Audit Program Kit in Excel: audit frequency set by risk and change, scheduled months, last audited, status and notes — Annual Program tab. Frequency set by risk, change and last findings, not by the calendar. Overdue flags itself.

The Single Audit Plan tab: criteria, scope, exclusions, sampling basis, records sampled and the meeting times, one plan per audit — Audit Plan tab. One plan per audit: criteria, scope, exclusions, sampling basis and the meeting times.

The Question Bank tab: questions by clause in the four shapes that get answers, with the evidence to request and what to look for — Question Bank tab, shared with the free checklist. Questions by clause, with what to look for pre-filled.

The Findings Register tab: finding ID, clause, requirement cited, evidence, gap, classification, process owner, repeat flag and status — Findings Register tab. Requirement, evidence, gap, and nothing else. The repeat column flags a clause found before.

The Closure and Verification tab: correction, corrective action, control level, implemented date, verify-due date computed at 90 days, and effectiveness evidence sampled after the change — Closure tab. Correction, corrective action and effectiveness as three things, with the 90-day verify date computed.

The Report to Management Review tab: four numbers, what they mean in combination, one conclusion and one ask, filled from the other sheets — Management Review Report tab. Four numbers, what they mean together, one conclusion, one ask. Fills itself.

The Audit Dashboard tab: twelve measures and the reading in words, calculated from the program, the findings register and closure — Dashboard tab. Twelve measures and the reading in words. Nothing to type.

The method

An audit program that audits where the risk is, and a register that remembers.

Most internal audit programs are a calendar: every clause once a year, the same auditor, the same checklist. The kit weights the annual program by how much a process matters, what the last audit found, and what has changed since, which is what the 2026 edition now asks for by name in 9.2.2. The audits land where the findings are likely to be.

The findings register carries a REPEAT flag. A finding raised before in the same clause is the one that tells you the last corrective action did not hold, and it is the finding a certification auditor will go looking for. The register makes it impossible to miss.

Closure runs through a 90-day verification, not a signature. The management review report reads the program back to management in one page, because 9.3.2 wants the audit results as an input, not as a folder.

What it computes for you

A risk-weighted audit program that flags repeat findings and reports its own verified-effective rate.

Program completion and audits overdue
Findings by classification, REPEAT flag by clause

Yellow cells are yours; white cells calculate. It arrives filled in with the series’ fictional plant so every flag and chart has something to show; clear the yellow cells and start.

Questions

Before you buy.

Which Excel version do I need?

Excel 2016 or later on Windows or Mac, or Google Sheets. Every formula is standard: no macros, no add-ins, no external links. In Google Sheets use File → Import → Replace spreadsheet.

Why does the workbook arrive filled in?

Every workbook ships pre-filled with the same fictional plant so each dashboard, flag and trend has something to show. Read it that way first, then clear the yellow input cells; the white computed cells empty themselves.

What is the difference between an entry worksheet and a pack?

An entry worksheet is two or three tabs lifted from its pack, and it is $5 or more, your choice. The pack is the full workbook with the register, the dashboard and the field guide PDF that explains the method, for $35. Start with the worksheet; the formulas and the worked example are the same.

What if it does not do what the page says?

Thirty days, no questions. Reply to the receipt email, or write to ryan@qualityfieldguides.com, and it is refunded.
