Office of the Auditor | State of Hawai`i

Our Mission
Improve government through independent and objective analysis.

Our Work
In addition to performance and financial audits, our office performs procurement audits, sunset evaluations of regulatory programs, sunrise analyses of proposed regulatory programs, analyses of proposals to mandate health insurance benefits, analyses of proposed special and revolving funds, analyses of existing special, trust and revolving funds, and special studies requested by the Legislature.  We report our findings and recommendations to the Governor and the Legislature so they can make informed decisions.

Our Standards
Our audit work is conducted in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain sufficient, appropriate evidence to provide a reasonable basis for our findings and conclusions based on our audit objectives.
