ENIt is vital to investigate the state of the Internal Control System (ICS), which helps the enterprise to achieve its goals, before starting to introduce the system in the companies. This article deals with the survey of the ICS in Lithuanian companies. In this paper the emphasis is put on the peculiarities of the ICS in small, medium and large enterprises. A research of this kind is carried out in Lithuania for the first time. When an enterprise is willing to achieve the best possible business results, it seeks to employ all potential resources. One of them is the development of the Internal Control System, which helps to achieve the goals set forth by the company. After the restitution of Lithuanian independence, most of the heads of Lithuanian enterprises considered the Internal Control (IC) to be a vestige of a socialist society and thus gave inadequate regard to it. In this situation the property of most state-owned enterprises was squandered or even plundered. In private enterprises, only after revealing the plunders and abuse, the heads of the companies would acknowledge that the activities had been controlled insufficiently. Such realities made people slowly and painfully grasp the importance of the Internal Control. Nowadays much attention is paid to the issue of Internal Control and Internal Audit, but introduction of the Internal Control in the companies is still a fraught thing.Object of the research - the state of the Internal Control in Lithuanian enterprises. The results of the empiric investigation (taken in 2001 and 2007) of the availability of the internal control in the Lithuanian enterprises are presented.
