Annual Audit Plan for 2018

I am pleased to present our audit plan for calendar year 2018. This plan provides a road map for accomplishing our mission to conduct independent and objective audits to improve the economy, efficiency, and effectiveness of the programs and operations of Amtrak (the company), while also preventing and detecting fraud, waste, and abuse. We strive to provide broad and balanced coverage of the company’s programs and operations that have historically been areas of interest to our internal and external stakeholders.
