  • Handbook for Contractors

    The OIG created a Handbook for Contractors to assist LAUSD contractors in understanding applicable requirements for audits conducted by the OIG’s Contract Audit Unit and to help ease the contract audit process. The information and examples in the booklet are intended solely to provide better insight into the audit process and should not be construed as uniform mandatory guidelines. This booklet also should not be considered a substitute for the applicable rules, regulations and contractual terms, since not all requirements are contained herein. Each contractor must tailor its responses to its individual situation.
