Successful organizations build in appropriate quality standards to ensure that all aspects of their activities meet their stakeholders’ expectations. They also continue to monitor and, where necessary, improve their quality standards to maintain their effectiveness over time.
For a property tax assessing agency, this is of particular importance in relation to their key activity which is the production of property valuations that form the basis of the property tax system in the jurisdiction(s) they cover.
It is essential that property taxpayers and governments that bill and collect property taxes have confidence in the accuracy and fairness of the valuations that assessing agencies produce and maintain. It is also important that any other layer of government, or other bodies that may rely on the property tax valuations for other funding purposes, also have confidence in the valuations that form the tax base.
For these reasons, it is essential that assessing organizations set appropriate quality standards, employ effective quality assurance and quality control measures that are relevant to their activities and audit them on a regular basis to ensure they are fit for purpose.
IPTI has developed a "Quality Audit Framework" (QAF) which enables assessing organizations to objectively review the extent to which they meet these requirements. This webinar will explain what the QAF is and how it can be applied.
