ABSTRACT
This research study was triggered by the researcher’s experiences during Work Related Learning
at Bulawayo City Council. The researcher observed that although information technology was
making business easier for Bulawayo City Council, the impact of information technology on
Bulawayo City Council’s audit department was not being addressed.
The research made an in-depth review of the literature related to the impact of information
technology on internal audit.This review aimed at obtaining information on what other authors
who carried the same study said in order to get the required information conversant with current
studies. The researcher made use of the descriptive research methods in gathering the
information relevant to the study. The techniques employed included the conducting of
interviews and the administering of questionnaires. The population utilized in the research was
made up of BCC’s Members of the Audit Committee, Chief Internal Auditor, Senior Accountants
and Senior IT Technicians.
From the findings obtained, the researcher concluded that the internal audit staffs at Bulawayo
City Council were failing to keep abreast to the continuous changes in information technology
implemented by the organisationhence recommendations were made.
