This paper aims to formulate a strategy for internal audit to improve and sustain its relevance to the Company. The audit strategy should define the priorities of the Internal Audit aligned with PMC?s goal. It has to provide efficient and effective audit services to adapt to changing expectations of the stakeholders and to maintain alignment with the Company?s objectives. For internal audit to remain relevant, a systematic and structured process of internal audit strategy is fundamental. In addition, the purpose of this paper is also to design and implement a strategically focused internal audit function. This is to put in place a strategic approach which will enable Internal Audit to contribute to better governance and address company-wide risk and control issues. To achieve the above objectives, internal and external factors influencing both the Internal Audit and that of the Company are analyzed. The strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats are identified based on the analysis of the internal and external factors. The strategy and implementing programs formulated are designed in a long-term perspective.
