However, this time, we are proposing to select only three projects due to an ISSAI project. • To identify projects for the purpose of the next Work Plan of the WGITA for the period 2014-2016, SAI-India conducted a IT survey requesting the member SAIs to give feedback on the previous products of the WGITA and provide list of the probable projects. • About 21 member SAIs forwarded duly filled in survey form totaling 61 probable projects for next work plan.

  4. Draft Work Plan (2014-2016) • We identified 20 common projects out of total 61 projects. • The shortlisted 20 projects were forwarded to all WGITA members for ranking from 1 (most preferred) to 20 (least preferred). • Based on the result of the ranking analysis, the following three projects have emerged as the most preferred choices: • IT Governance (proposed by SAI-Slovenia) • Data Mining as a Tool in Fraud Investigation (proposed by SAI-Kuwait) • Audit Management System as a tool for IT Audit (proposed by SAI-Oman) Comptroller and Auditor General of India
