Increase Efficiency

Support Compliance
Not only is internal audit being asked to become more efficient and
effective in performing its traditional assurance role, but expectations are
heightened to also assess the effectiveness of risk management processes.
How can the audit team do this? Largely by leveraging the benefits of data analysis techniques, which have been
used for years, to improve business performance.
ACL has applied its more than 24 years of experience to develop the Audit Analytic Capability Model. This Model
identifies the benefits of different levels of use of audit analytics and provides guidance on what needs to be in
place from a people, process and technology perspective to optimize these benefits.
As a result, ACL developed unique solutions for each level of the Model to help organizations effectively integrate
their use of audit analytics.
