A List of NDIS-Approved Auditors in Your Area

July 12, 2023

You’ve got your paperwork sorted, you’ve registered to be an NDIS provider, and now you need to get your audit done. 

But who do you go to for the audit? We’ve compiled a list of NDIS auditors in your area to help you narrow it down.

But first, what does an auditor do?

An auditor is an independent organisation that assesses your company’s services and supports against the NDIS Practice Standards.

Auditors check whether you are providing the services and supports you offer and if you are doing so safely using person-centred approaches.

They look at your organisation’s size, scope, and service delivery to see if you are qualified to provide your nominated services. You can either get verified or certified.

How do I know I can trust an auditor?

Most auditors will have the approval of the NDIS to carry out these audits. Our list includes all the auditors approved by the NDIS.

Some auditors may also have other credentials including the:

  • Joint Accreditation Scheme of Australia and New Zealand (JAZ-ANZ), which verifies that your auditor is qualified to carry out its duties
  • International Accreditation Forum (IAF), a global organisation that validates and verifies auditors across the world

When researching an auditor, it’s good to look at their other credentials to see if they’re the right one for you. 

It’s also a good idea to keep in mind your budget and organisation size.

What services does an NDIS auditor typically provide?

Auditors usually verify or certify you.

Verification audits occur if your organisation delivers lower-risk supports and services. 

You must show the auditor evidence of your:

  • Relevant qualifications
  • Skills, knowledge, and experience
  • Policies and procedures, including
  • Incident reporting/incident management
  • Complaints/complaints management
  • Risks and hazards/risk management
  • Safe, quality supports and services

Certification audits are necessary if your organisation provides more complex or higher-risk supports and services. 

If this is the case, you are assessed against the core NDIS Practice Standards and any other module related to your supports and services.

You must show the auditor evidence of your:

  • Relevant qualifications
  • Skills, knowledge, and experience
  • Policies and procedures, including
  • Incident reporting/incident management
  • Complaints/complaints management
  • Risks and hazards/risk management
  • Governance and operational management
  • A safe delivery environment
  • Safe, quality delivery of supports and services

As certification audits are more high-level, they also involve document reviews, site visits, and interviews with your staff and participants.

You need to make sure you get an audit done within 18 months of your registration (if you're a new provider) or 12 months (if you’re already registered). Have a read of the whole process in our other blog, 5 Steps to Passing Your NDIS Audit.
