AAQ also oversees quality management processes, including monitoring and remediation activities, root cause analysis, learning and capability development initiatives. Through these activities, AAQ helps foster a culture of quality, professional scepticism and continuous improvement, reinforcing BDO's commitment to serving the public interest and maintaining stakeholder confidence in our work.
The Manager – Methodology supports the development, implementation and ongoing enhancement of BDO’s audit methodology, policies, guidance and related tools.
