Internal Audits are investigations which primarily evaluate the processes for fulfilling requirements and guidelines. They are conducted by internal auditors and take place in irregularly planned intervals or in a case of doubt. After an Internal Audit has been completed, an periodic and scheduled audit planning takes place in which the discoveries are recorded and processed to ensure an optimal follow-up process.
Organizations today are required to comply with an increasing number of regulations, policies and procedures. This drives the need for ongoing auditing in organizations. The traditional regulation/policy/procedure-specific audit software solutions have become less effective, as they are not integrative and hence can create inconsistencies and even contradictory audit processes. Executive officers are specifically required to demonstrate effective internal audit practices, and to ensure corporate transparency and visibility into the business. The internal audit process is continuous and needs to be repeated periodically and closely monitored. Management is personally responsible for an adequate level of internal audit, and this responsibility requires significant management attention and allocation of time and effort.
The GOLDENHORN eGRC Internal Audit software is one of reliable solutions in the GRC market that provides a comprehensive and integrated framework for managing internal audits in a multi-subsidiary environment. The Internal Audit Management enables enterprises to define audit plans, assign audits to designated auditors, schedule audits, collect audit results, document recommendations, manage remediation plans, and present summarizing dashboards of audit outcomes for each subsidiary.
The GOLDENHORN eGRC Internal Audit Management supports all types of audits, including internal audits, operational audits, and IT audits. The GOLDENHORN eGRC IAM is aimed at efficient audit execution and ensures integration of the audit process with the risk and compliance management system.
