Strengthening Public Sector Governance: Forvis Mazars Supports APN
Yaoundé, Cameroon – July 2025 – As part of our commitment to empowering public institutions with practical, results-oriented consulting solutions, Forvis Mazars recently delivered a two-day training session for 50 employees of the National Port Authority (Autorité Portuaire Nationale - APN)
Enhancing internal control through procedural literacy
Under the leadership of Fidèle, our Partner in charge of the Consulting line of service, our team facilitated an intensive, hands-on session focused on procedures writing and operational documentation. This initiative was designed to improve the clarity, standardisation, and implementation of internal procedures across APN’s departments.
- Participants explored key elements of professional procedures documentation, including:
- Defining procedural objectives and scope
- Structuring content for readability and compliance
- Aligning operational workflows with internal control frameworks
- Engaging staff in the procedures lifecycle: design, validation, application, and review
This technical training was followed by a collective review and dissemination of APN’s internal procedures manual, ensuring a shared understanding of institutional norms and responsibilities.
