This report describes the County’s risk environment and shows how the County Auditor prioritizes audit
areas and develops an annual audit plan for approval by the County Board of Supervisors (Board). The
Board, as the County’s governing body, determines whether resources are sufficient to implement and
maintain internal controls that provide assurance the Board’s strategic objectives will be met.

MANAGING RISK IS EVERYONE’S RESPONSIBILITY
Risk is the possibility that events might not go as planned.
While managing risk is challenging due to Maricopa
County’s diverse physical, financial, and operational
organization, it is also critical to the County’s success. The
Board of Supervisors establishes a five-year strategic plan
to provide a road map for the future and entrusts execution
of that plan to County officials. Risk management is the
process used to prepare for and protect the County from
uncertainties.
County leaders regularly identify risks that can threaten the
strategic plan, including:
 Suppressed property tax values due to legislative changes and a slow economic recovery.
 Increased proportion of retirement-eligible employees, leading to staffing issues such as high
turnover and loss of institutional knowledge.
 Continued reliance on enterprise-wide technology in an environment with continuously
evolving cybersecurity threats.
 Continued pressure on infrastructure, primarily caused by population growth.
 Continued cost shifts from state government to County government.
 Increased need to balance financial constraints with best-in-class service to County residents.
County leadership has responded to these risks by:
 Critically evaluating the operating budget and slowing spending on planned capital projects.
 Changing the budgeting approach from the “most likely” to “pessimistic” forecast for several
years while maintaining structural balance (recurring revenues meet or exceed recurring
expenses), which protects against unforeseen revenue declines and promotes sustainable
services.
 Investing in technology to increase productivity and provide better services to County
residents.
 Prioritizing maintenance of cash reserves to address unforeseen economic needs.
Three Lines of Defense
To assist County leadership in its risk response, the County can be viewed as having three lines of
defense that collaborate to assess and respond to risk.
Managers and supervisors are the first line of defense against risk. They are the risk owners
responsible for developing and executing control procedures on a day-to-day basis. Their actions help
mitigate risk and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. Without managers’ support,
employees may not be effective in controlling the risk they encounter. In a perfect world, this would
be the only line of defense needed; however, in the real world, internal controls do not operate
perfectly.
2

Oversight and compliance functions such as Finance, Budget, Risk Management, Procurement,
Office of Enterprise Technology, and Human Resources, are the second line of defense. They are the
advisors who oversee risk and monitor countywide risk management practices. Several County
departments also have internal functions that serve this purpose, but often go unrecognized. These
activities range from quality control reporting to inspecting and reconciling County records.
Internal Audit is the third line of defense. Internal Audit is an independent function whose role is to
“spot check” a small number of County processes each year to determine that management is
identifying, implementing, and monitoring the necessary controls to prevent fraud, waste, and abuse.
These objective evaluators also serve as a resource to managers and supervisors in identifying areas
for improvement.
In addition to the three internal lines of defense discussed above, the County is also subject to external
reviews and audits from various state and federal regulators. All of these parties leverage their efforts
when evaluating County operations to ensure efficient use of County resources.

Ethics and Fraud
The lines of defense shown previously are reinforced by fraud prevention efforts. Fraud is an act of
deliberate deception to secure unfair or unlawful gain at an organization’s or individual’s expense.
While fraud risk cannot be eliminated, it can be managed. Fraud prevention is addressed through
sound policies and procedures, and employee training. Maricopa County management addresses fraud
risk by encouraging strong ethical behavior using the following tools:
3

 The County Ethics Policy and Handbook outlines appropriate behavior.
 Additional County Policies clarify specific ethical behavior (e.g., the acceptance of gifts by
County employees is prohibited). Policies are developed and approved by designated policy
teams and by County leadership to ensure current issues are addressed.
 New Employee Orientation classes teach appropriate ethical behavior for all newly-hired
County employees.
 A County Hotline, provided by the Maricopa County CARES program, provides an
anonymous tip line for County employees. This hotline may be used to report fraud, waste,
and abuse, or other employee issues.
The Board of Supervisors also addresses fraud risk by maintaining an Internal Audit Department.
Internal Audit helps to deter fraud, waste, and abuse by promoting strong internal controls in the
following ways:
 Analyzing the potential for fraud during the audit planning process
 Issuing formal and informal recommendations that may deter fraud
 Reporting significant fraud issues to the County Attorney’s Office
 Providing internal control videos and other information on its website
WHAT’S ON COUNTY MANAGEMENT’S MIND?
In addition to speaking with County leadership, Maricopa County Internal Audit conducted a survey
of County managers to aid in the identification of key risks throughout the County. This survey was
sent to 73 managers across 52 departments and functional areas. With a 26% response rate, the top 5
risk categories identified were: 1) Employee Recruitment and Retention, 2) Information Technology
(IT) and Cybersecurity, 3) Budget & Resource Allocation, 4) Policy and Administration, and 5)
Health, Safety, and Security. These categories are consistent with most of the risks identified by
County leadership. The following word cloud visually represents the importance of risks identified by
the respondents based on frequency of the words used in responses. Discussions of the top five
categories follow the graphic.
This word cloud indicates County leaders’ top concerns relate to the County’s financial
position and administration, security (physical and IT), and employee-related topics.

1) Employee Recruitment & Retention
Engaged Employees are Effective Employees
The top risk identified in the County
management survey was recruiting top talent and Committed to Employee
keeping employees engaged. Similar to any for- Engagement
profit organization, the County’s workforce is
one of its greatest assets, but also one of its "Better, happier employees become
largest expenditures. With more than 14,000 better, more effective public
employees, personnel expenditures make up servants."
approximately 60% of the County’s overall Denny Barney, Chairman
operating budget in fiscal year (FY) 2017. With of the Board of Supervisors
continued pressure to compete with private
sector compensation, the County’s employee
turnover rate exceeded 14% in FY 2016, which represents an 8-year high. The Board of Supervisors
remains focused on improving retention through on-going compensation analysis and an investment in
workforce development opportunities, including a new internal training system.
The County also continues to see an increase in retirements and retirement-eligible employees. As of
July 2016, 9.4% of County employees in the Arizona State Retirement System are eligible for
retirement. Of the managers and executives in this group, the rate is even higher at 30.1%. Without
proper agency planning, the quality of services may suffer if a large number of seasoned employees
leave County employment. This risk is heightened if agency business processes are not adequately
documented.
2) IT & Cybersecurity
Technology is Costly, but Necessary
The technology landscape changes quickly and keeping up with those changes for a jurisdiction as
large and varied as Maricopa County is a challenge. The County’s IT professionals and department
leaders work together to evaluate technology needs and ensure decisions align with the County’s
strategic goals. They work to balance the
capabilities of the latest technology with important

improvement budget. The two costliest projects for this fiscal year are the Public Safety Radio System
upgrade ($28.4 million) and the Treasurer’s Technology System upgrade ($19.9 million).

3) Budget & Resource Allocation
Balancing Increased Costs with Providing Best-in-Class Service
The County continually strives to develop a sustainable, structurally-
balanced budget and is focused on building necessary reserves to
ensure the County’s fiscal health continues into the future. With slow
economic growth and recent cost shifts from the state, balancing these
factors with the responsibility to provide mandated and other needed
services continues to be a challenge.
Despite increased demand for criminal justice, health care, and general
service delivery, in FY 2017, the County’s operating budget absorbed
approximately $11 million of additional costs that were shifted from the
state without a significant impact to provided services, a testament to
the success of prudent fiscal planning that the County has employed in
recent years.
4) Policy & Administration
Thorough Policies Lead to Consistent Practices
Policies and procedures are created by management to define behavior that supports an organization’s
mission and objectives. They are also commonly used to define controls that mitigate risks associated
with an environment. Thorough policies and procedures serve as effective training tools for staff and
faculty.
If written policies and procedures do not exist, are inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, and/or not
communicated, the risk of inconsistent practices and errors increases. County management reviews
countywide policies and collaborates with key department leaders to update or revise policies for the
Board of Supervisors or County Manager to consider. The target is to review all central policies on a
rolling five-year basis, or as directed.
5) Health, Safety, and Security
Always a Top Priority
Providing safe communities is an ongoing strategic priority for Maricopa County. With over 4 million
people spread across more than 9,000 square miles, the task of ensuring the health, safety, and security
of the citizens is a large one. This is further complicated by the nature of the world today, where
terrorism threats and public health concerns are high. County departments such as Public Health,
Human Services, Environmental Services, Air Quality, Emergency Management, and the Sheriff’s
Office are continuously working to provide a broad range of health, human, and environmental
services.

HOW IDENTIFIED RISKS INFLUENCE THE AUDIT PLAN
Internal Audit starts the risk assessment process by updating its list of all auditable areas (Audit
Universe – see page 10). Internal Audit compiles the list by reviewing the County’s organization
chart, budget, financial data, and Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR), which is audited
by the Arizona State Auditor General. Included in the list are areas that require audits on a regular
basis (mandated audits). For example, the Arizona Supreme Court requires accounting reviews of all
Justice Courts, the Clerk of the Superior Court, and other court departments every three years.
Additionally, the federal government requires an annual audit of expended federal grant funds, which
Internal Audit monitors.
Internal Audit then assigns a risk level (high, medium, or low) to the auditable areas based on several
factors such as financial impact, citizen impact, and risk appetite (based on leadership input, see the
following chart). Risk appetite can be defined as the level of risk an organization is prepared to accept
before taking action to reduce it. For example, the County may not have the latest version of a
particular technology, but as long as the technology it has keeps its operating data secure and allows
for delivery of necessary services to citizens, management may choose not to take action to replace it
immediately. County leaders’ risk appetite influences the level of audit resources. For example, in
2011, the Board of Supervisors allocated additional funds for auditing the Sheriff’s Office, a high-risk
office that is now audited annually. Additional resources can increase audit frequency, which can help
lower organizational risk.

In addition to auditor judgment, Internal Audit considers
these seven factors to determine risk level.

Once risk levels are assigned, Internal Audit develops a draft audit plan for the upcoming year by:
 Comparing risk levels with the length of time that has elapsed since the most recent audit of
each area. Areas with longer audit intervals receive additional consideration for the audit plan
because of the increased risk that control weaknesses may go undetected if an area is not
audited for a long period of time.
 Estimating and assigning audit resources needed to complete the work.
 Discussing the draft audit plan with the County’s Citizens’ Audit Advisory Committee.
 Discussing the draft audit plan with County leadership and making adjustments as needed.
After the draft audit plan has been prepared and reviewed, Internal Audit seeks formal Board of
Supervisors approval for the audit plan prior to the start of the new fiscal year. See page 9 for the FY
2018 Board approved audit plan.
AUDIT RESOURCES
Acting under the Board’s authority, Internal Audit reviews controls that County management has
implemented to address and mitigate risk. A well-staffed internal audit function regularly auditing
high-risk areas can help lower risk, and can be a deterrent to fraud, waste, and abuse. Most County
leaders stated that the current internal audit frequency (on average 6 to 7 years) is acceptable.
However, they would be in favor of increasing audit frequency as the County’s financial condition
improves. Internal Audit’s body of work provides observations and recommendations that assist the
Board in making decisions that govern the County. Internal Audit completes its annual audit plan
using internal staff and external specialists as shown below:
Audit Resources
• Internal Personnel
20 positions (4 positions are part-time)
• External Specialists
$324,000 for subject matter experts (law enforcement,
information technology and security, engineering,
healthcare, construction, investments, actuarial services,
etc.)

AUDIT UNIVERSE
The following list represents all operational areas of the County. Internal Audit calls this list an “audit
universe” because it divides the County’s organizations into “auditable activities.” These activities are
defined in various ways, such as function, organizational unit, or program. Although each activity
could be the subject of an individual audit, it is more common that several, or all, activities within an
agency would be selected for review at the same time.
