Audit Vault & Continuous Compliance
Immutable audit trail of every procurement action — always inspection-ready for the Auditor-General.
What It Does
Every action in AzaniaSCM — from the first demand through to final payment and performance review — is recorded in an immutable audit vault. Entries are timestamped, user-stamped, and cryptographically sealed. The vault is searchable, exportable, and structured to align with Auditor-General reporting requirements.
Pre-configured audit packs can be generated for specific cycles, departments, or procurement categories. These packs are formatted to match the evidence requirements of common audit findings, reducing preparation time from weeks to hours.
Why It Matters for South African SCM
The Auditor-General of South Africa conducts annual audits of public entities, with procurement as a key focus area. Findings often centre on missing documentation, unsigned records, and unverifiable processes. AzaniaSCM's Audit Vault ensures every procurement action has a permanent, tamper-proof record — turning audit season from a scramble into a formality.
Under the PFMA, accounting officers must maintain adequate accounting records and provide evidence for all transactions. The Audit Vault satisfies this requirement comprehensively, with records structured to demonstrate compliance with each relevant section of the Act and supporting Treasury Regulations.
