—Government & Public Sector
Internal audit software for government, in Arabic, on your infrastructure.
Public-sector audit functions work with public funds, Arabic-first reporting and strict data-sovereignty rules. ControlVista gives government internal audit a bilingual, on-premise system of record that runs the IIA 2024 lifecycle end to end.

—What's Different
Why audit in government & public sector is different.
Arabic is the working language
Working papers, reports and committee packs are often produced in Arabic first. Tools that treat Arabic as a translation layer double the work on every engagement.
Data sovereignty isn't optional
Government audit evidence usually has to stay on government infrastructure. SaaS-only audit tools are frequently ruled out at procurement.
Read alongside the supreme audit institution
Internal audit's findings sit next to the supreme audit institution's. The record of what was found, who owns it and whether it closed has to be complete and traceable.
—Across the GCC
Who sets the bar, country by country.
- Saudi Arabia
General Court of Audit
The Kingdom's supreme audit institution, auditing public funds and government entities. Internal auditors are now licensed by the Saudi Authority for Internal Auditors (2025).
- UAE
UAEAA · ADAA
The UAE Accountability Authority is the federal supreme audit institution; the Abu Dhabi Accountability Authority audits public funds at emirate level.
- Qatar
State Audit Bureau
Operating under Law No. 11 of 2016 and reporting directly to the Emir, it audits public funds and state entities; public-sector internal audit coordinates with its findings.
- Bahrain

- Oman
SFAAA
Restructured in 2024 as the State Financial and Administrative Audit Authority, reporting to the Sultan.

—Frequently Asked
Questions audit leaders ask.
Can ControlVista run on a government private cloud?
Yes. ControlVista is deployed on infrastructure you control — your data centre or private cloud. We have no access to your engagement files.
Is the platform fully bilingual?
Yes. English and Arabic live on every user-facing field, and reports and committee packs render natively in both languages.
Does ControlVista replace the supreme audit institution's systems?
No. ControlVista is audit management software for an entity's own internal audit function. It gives that function a traceable record of its plan, engagements, findings and remediation.
