Data Analysis section
The Data Analysis (DA) section assists in the identification, acquisition, preparation, and analysis of data from CRA's data stores. The DA section generates data analytics reports and assists in identifying new data requirements in support of internal audits, program evaluations, and risk assessments.
The data analytics produced by the DA section helps to study key risk and fraud indicators, to identify errors or misuse, to improve business efficiencies, to verify process effectiveness, and to influence business decisions. Data analytics is typically used as evidence in support of findings and conclusions during the execution of engagements and other value-added consulting and continuous auditing activities.
