The study titled "Internal Control and Its Impact on the Administrative Process in the Autonomous Parish Government of El Anegado" aims to analyze how the implementation of internal control influences the effectiveness and efficiency of administrative management within this entity. To conduct this research, a mixed approach was used, combining bibliographic methods, deductive analysis, and statistical techniques. Data collection was carried out through surveys and interviews directed at employees of the Autonomous Government, as well as the review of relevant sources, including scientific articles and administrative documents. The results revealed that the implementation of internal control is insufficient and presents significant areas for improvement. Deficiencies were identified in the planning, execution, and monitoring of administrative processes, which negatively impact accountability and the supervision of public resources. These deficiencies suggest that, although internal control is present, its application is neither consistent nor uniform, limiting its effectiveness. Consequently, it is concluded that strengthening internal control is crucial for optimizing the administrative process, which could lead to greater efficiency in parish management and continuous improvement in the services offered to the community. This strengthening would help ensure more transparent and accountable management, aligned with institutional objectives and the needs of the citizens served by the entity.
