Scope

Management Advisory and Compliance Services (MACS) examines and evaluates the  effectiveness of Towson's system of internal control and the quality of performance in carrying out assigned responsibilities. We also provide continual oversight of Towson's internal controls, risk management and performance quality. Our scope includes:

• Reviewing the reliability and integrity of financial and operating information and the means used to identify, measure, classify and report such information
• Reviewing the systems established to ensure compliance with those policies, plans, procedures, laws and regulations, which could have a significant impact on operations and reporting and determining whether the university is in compliance
• Reviewing the means of safeguarding assets and, as appropriate, verifying the existence of such assets
• Appraising the economy and efficiency with which resources are employed
• Acting as liaison with all external audit groups and coordinating responses to and compliance with audit report comments

Responsibility and Authority

MACS has full and free access to all university activities, records, properties and personnel. We are free to review and appraise all policies, plans and procedures of the university.

MACS is a staff function and, as such, has no authority to make operating decisions, to direct anyone in operations to take action or implement any of its recommendations. These tasks are the responsibility of the university's officers.

Independence

To permit the rendering of impartial and unbiased judgments essential to the proper conduct of reviews, MACS is independent of activities reviewed.
