The lack of system documentation should be of most concern to an IS auditor reviewing the information systems acquisition, development, and implementation process. This is because system documentation is a vital source of information that describes the system's purpose, functionality, design, architecture, testing, deployment, operation, and maintenance. System documentation helps the IS auditor to understand and evaluate the system's quality, performance, security, compliance, and alignment with the business requirements and objectives. Without system documentation, the IS auditor may not be able to perform a thorough and effective audit of the system, aswell as identify any issues or risks that may affect the system's reliability or integrity12.
Data owners are not trained on the use of data conversion tools is not the most concerning issue, although it may indicate a lack of user readiness or competence for the system implementation. Data conversion tools are software applications that help users to transform data from one format or structure to another, such as from legacy systems to new systems. Data owners are users who have the responsibility and authority to manage and control the data within their domain. Data owners should be trained on how to use data conversion tools to ensure that the data is accurately and securely transferred to the new system, as well as to avoid any data loss, corruption, or inconsistency. However, data owners are not the only users who need training for the system implementation, and data conversion tools are not the only tools that need training34.
A post-implementation lessons-learned exercise was not conducted is not the most concerning issue, although it may indicate a lack of continuous improvement or learning culture for the system development and implementation process. A post-implementation lessons-learned exercise is a meeting or a session that takes place after the completion of a system implementation project, where the project team and stakeholders discuss and document the successes and failures of the project, as well as identify any best practices or areas for improvement for future projects. Apost-implementation lessons-learned exercise can help to enhance the project management skills, knowledge, and performance of the project team and stakeholders, as well as to avoid repeating the same mistakes or problems in future projects56.
System deployment is routinely performed by contractors is not the most concerning issue, although it may pose some challenges or risks for the system implementation process. System deployment is the final stage of the system development life cycle (SDLC), where the system is installed and configured on the target environment and made available for use by end-users. System deployment can be performed by internal staff or external contractors, depending on the availability, expertise, and cost of resources. System deployment by contractors may offer some benefits such as faster delivery, lower cost, or higher quality than internal staff. However, system deployment by contractors mayalso introduce some risks such as loss of control, dependency, or security breaches over the system implementation process

Substantive testing provides the most reliable audit evidence on the validity of transactions in a financial application. Substantive testing is an audit procedure that examines the financial statements and supporting documentation to see if they contain errors or misstatements. Substantive testing can help to verify that the transactions recorded in the financial applicationare authorized, complete, accurate, and properly classified.
Substantive testing can include methods such as vouching, confirmation, analytical procedures, or physical examination.

A project business case is a document that describes the rationale and justification for initiating a project, based on its expected costs, benefits, risks, and feasibility. A project business case provides the most useful information to an IS auditor when selecting projects for inclusion in an IT audit plan, because it helps the IS auditor to:
* Understand the purpose, scope, objectives, and deliverables of the project
* Assess the alignment of the project with the organization's strategy, vision, and goals
* Evaluate the value proposition and return on investment of the project
* Identify the key stakeholders, sponsors, and owners of the project
* Analyze the potential risks and issues associated with the project
* Compare and prioritize the project with other competing projects
The other possible options are:
* A. Project charter: A project charter is a document that formally authorizes and defines the high-level scope, roles, responsibilities, and authority of a project. A project charter provides some useful information to an IS auditor when selecting projects for inclusion in an IT audit plan, but it is not the most useful information. A project charter does not provide enough details about the costs, benefits, risks, and feasibility of the project, which are essential for evaluating its suitability for an IT audit plan.
* B. Project plan: A project plan is a document that outlines the detailed scope, schedule, budget, resources, quality, and communication plans of a project. A project plan provides some useful information to an IS auditor when selecting projects for inclusion in an IT audit plan, but it is not the most useful information. A project plan does not provide enough information about the rationale, justification, value proposition, and alignment of the project with the organization's strategy and goals, which are important for assessing its relevance for an IT audit plan.
* C. Project issue log: A project issue log is a document that records and tracks the issues that arise during a project's execution and how they are resolved. A project issue log provides some useful information to an IS auditor when selecting projects for inclusion in an IT audit plan, but it is not the most useful information. A project issue log does not provide enough information about the purpose, objectives, benefits, and feasibility of the project, which are critical for determining its priority for an IT audit plan.

The best way to ensure that business continuity plans (BCPs) will work effectively in the event of a major disaster is to involve staff at all levels in periodic paper walk-through exercises. This means that the BCPs are tested and validated by the people who will execute them in a real situation, and any gaps, errors, or inconsistencies can be identified and corrected. Paper walk-through exercises are also a good way to raise awareness and train staff on their roles and responsibilities in a BCP scenario, as well as to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the recovery strategies1.
The other options are not the best ways to ensure that BCPs will work effectively, because they do not involve testing or validating the plans. Preparing detailed plans for each business function is important, but it does not guarantee that the plans are realistic, practical, or aligned with the overall business objectives and priorities2. Regularly updating business impact assessments is also essential, but it does not ensure that the BCPs are aligned with the current business environment and risks2. Making senior managers responsible for their plan sections is a good way to assign accountability and authority, but it does not ensure that the plansections are coordinated and integrated with each other2.
