Technical Support Function
The Technical Support Function (TSF) contributes to INTOSAI’s standard setting activities by providing ad hoc technical support for INTOSAI working groups, committees or FIPP, under the coordination of the PSC.
TSF activities consist mainly of:

- undertaking approved SDP projects (including technical preparation and drafting support)
- analysing and processing the results of the exposure process.
The TSF also assists the PSC Chair in its role of oversight over the due process, and it will help to manage and maintain the IFPP more generally.
The TSF consists of one manager and two officers, seconded by their institutions to work for INTOSAI.
