In this section, you will find all the reference and guidance material needed to understand and apply the SAI PMF methodology.

SAI PMF Framework

A 2021 version of the framework is now available. This version contains a relabelling and update of references to ensure alignment with the INTOSAI Framework of Professional Pronouncements (IFPP). It is important to note that the content of the indicators, dimensions and criteria are the same compared to the 2016 version of the framework. A few criteria have been rephrased to align with the IFPP, but the content and what you assess is the same. The 2021 version is currently undergoing translations. Until then it is perfectly fine to use the 2016 version.

If you have any questions, please contact the SAI PMF Team at: [email protected]

SAI PMF Repeat Assessment Toolkit

The guidance provides advice to assessment teams on how to conduct a repeat SAI PMF assessment and how to compare the results of two assessments to understand how performance has changed.

The worksheets can be used to register the assessment results and analyse performance change in a simple and practical manner. Worksheet 1 should be used when the pilot version was used for the first assessment and the 2016 version was used for the repeat assessment. Worksheet 2 should be used when the 2016 version was used for both assessments.
