allows OIGs to face unprecedented risks while optimizing strategy setting and

Innovation is not automagical but it is an essential element for the audit community to tackle complex oversight challenges in a digitally connected world that cannot be fully addressed through conventional approaches alone. What strategy can we adopt to incorporate emerging capabilities - such as artificial intelligence (AI), distributed ledgers, robotic-process-automation (RPA), and cloud computing - and help drive better oversight questions with greater speed, scale, and depth? The Innovation Lab at GAO aims to shape the #FutureOfAudit to help our mission teams as well as a broad ecosystem of stakeholders sail into the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
