The stagnation in regional government performance evaluations through LPPD and SAKIP instruments highlights the importance of improving internal audit quality as a basis for government performance assessment. A quantitative method was employed involving 162 auditor respondents using questionnaires, with data analyzed by Smart PLS. The results indicate that auditor capability positively and significantly affects internal audit quality (T-statistic = 4.039; p = 0.000). The code of ethics significantly moderates the relationship between capability and internal audit quality (T-statistic = 1.982; p = 0.047), albeit with a negative direction, while procedural justice does not show a significant moderating effect (T-statistic = 1.285; p = 0.199). This study reinforces the theory of auditor competence and professional ethics and offers important implications for enhancing internal audit quality in government institutions. Findings related to procedural justice provide opportunities for further research on the role of procedural fairness in bureaucratic organizations. %D 2025 %A AFRIDA SUNDARI %L eprintuntirta53453 %K auditor capability, internal audit quality, code of ethics, procedural justice, Inspectorate of Cilegon City Kapabilitas APIP auditor, kualitas audit internal, kode etik, procedural justice, Inspektorat Kota Cilegon
