suitably designed and operating effectively to provide reasonable assurance of complying with applicable
GAS issued by the Comptroller General of the United States as well as applicable legal and regulatory
requirements.
The peer review team will prepare a signed report and a letter to management, if appropriate, stating their
conclusions. The review team will follow the reporting guidelines contained in the ALGA Peer Review

review team. Such documents shall include those necessary to evaluate staff competency. Audit
Organization personnel will also be available for interview by the peer review team. During the course of the
