Performance audits of state agencies under the general management in Turkey is carried out by the Turkish Court of Accounts(TCA). The TCA fulfills the performance audit task by evaluating the quality of performance information in the basic tools of the performance-based monitoring process of public administrations.

As a result of the analysis, it has been determined that there are universities that do not meet both the reporting requirements and the criteria for the content of performance information.
