e. Monitoring - as internal control is implemented, management should
monitor the operation of controls to provide assurance that all five
components (including the monitoring function itself) continue to operate
effectively. Monitoring activities may be ongoing, separate evaluations. Or
a combination thereof. Ongoing monitoring activities are often designed
into recurring activities such as sales and purchases. Separate
evaluations are often performed by internal auditors or other personnel
and often include communication of information about strengths and
weaknesses and recommendations for improving internal controls.
