sudo/sudoers

Dear folks.

Considering PCIDSS standards, i have requirment to use sudo(ers) to log everything a certain user executes with root privileges.

Now, for an admin it's just a pain in the ass to prefix every command with sudo.

Only way i can think of is making .aliases and with some awk magic making every executable like :
Code:
alias ls="sudo ls"

Is there any better way perhaps ?

Thanks and regards.
