7. PROBLEMS WITH VALUE FOR MONEY
It’s no accident that private sector business owners rarely turn to their auditors to run the business. Auditors are
trained to provide assurance that firms are presenting their financial results in a fair and complete way. No one
expects auditors to comment on how to negotiate a contract, hire a CEO, or launch a new product. Business
owners know that auditors are not competent to do these things. Rather, they rely on professional managers to
run the business. – MacLean's – June 5, 2015
This is not to say that value for money is unimportant when taxpayer dollars are being spent in the public
interest. It is a key responsibility of public servants. But to assess the substantive results achieved by
government programs and how they measure up against targets requires subject matter and management
expertise that auditor general staffs rarely possess. MacLean's – June 5, 2015
