PACCAR Internal audit is an independent, objective assurance and advisory activity designed to add value and improve the organization’s operations. At its simplest, internal auditing involves identifying the risks that could keep an organization from achieving its goals, making sure the organization’s leaders know about these risks and proactively recommending improvements to help reduce the risks.

Internal Audit Purpose

The purpose of the internal audit function is to strengthen PACCAR’s ability to create, protect, and sustain value by providing the board and management with independent, risk-based, objective assurance, advice, and insight.
