handover of (audit) duties

D.3 Handover of duties
Each IAD staff member leaving a position on transfer, promotion or separation
should prepare comprehensive handover notes to assist his/her successor to
carry out their duties and to provide key knowledge and information regarding the
position. This also serves to preserve the institutional memory of the Division,
ensure that the transition period is as short and smooth as possible and to avoid
the successor having to refer to the predecessor on ongoing issues.

you might consider "transfer of power (to act)" but I would go with "transfer of authority" in this context

client matter transfer

A Mandat is a client matter, whether we're talking about audit firms or law firms.

"Throughout the transition, firms must be mindful of the client’s right to competent and unimpeded representation, ensuring that matter transfer does not have any adverse impact on the client’s representation by counsel." http://www.iltanet.org/HigherLogic/System/DownloadDocumentFi...
