The document discusses an internal audit team developing and implementing a balanced scorecard to achieve excellence. It presents a sample balanced scorecard with objectives in four categories: learning growth, internal processes, customer perspective, and finance perspective. Metrics and targets are identified for monitoring progress over the current and next two years. The scorecard aims to improve audit practices, processes, customer satisfaction, and cost management through quantitative and qualitative tracking.
