Answer: A
The IS auditor should review the redesigned process, assess
the risks, evaluate the controls and recommend the
inclusion, if appropriate, of additional controls. Whether
the changed process affects organizational structure,
finances and personnel, is a concern for the change
management team. The redefinition of roles for suppliers is
normally outside the scope of a BPR project. Choice D is an
important task but not as critical as a strong control
environment.
