DIGITAL MANAGED SERVICES FOR INTERNAL AUDIT. 

The UK's Internal Audit Code of Practice highlights the critical role of technology and analytics in modern audit functions. Yet whilst most audit teams recognise the transformative potential of data, automation, and AI to improve efficiency and risk coverage, turning this vision into reality remains challenging.

Most auditors struggle to move beyond sporadic efforts, hindered by traditional methodologies, resource constraints, and limited technical capabilities. Despite their ambitions, many find themselves caught between taking a chance on innovation or being assured of delivery on time and on budget. This choice is understandable but not sustainable.

This gap between ambition and execution persists, as auditors with strong ideas lack the frameworks, expertise, and support to drive real change. Without clear strategies for building capabilities and embedding new approaches, innovative efforts remain isolated rather than delivering meaningful improvements in audit efficiency and effectiveness.

The Vision Gap

 

Audit remains a profession built on tried and tested methodologies, where change naturally comes slowly. While audit committees and teams recognise the need to evolve, limited understanding of what's possible often holds back progress. Traditional sampling and manual testing persist, not because they're optimal, but because they're proven and trusted.

​​​

​​

❌ Core processes still manual.

❌ Data insights untapped.

❌ Technology underutilised.

The Execution Trap

 

Even when teams embrace analytics, implementation often stalls. Dependency on technical specialists creates bottlenecks, while data access issues and competing priorities halt momentum. Without clear front-of desk responsibility, initiatives stall, leaving analytics potential unrealised.

​​

❌ Ideas don't progress.

❌ Single-person dependancy.

❌ Day-job blocks progress.

Case Study: Global Bank

Our team developed a Data Quality Continuous Monitoring Solution for a global investment and retail bank to ensure compliance with deposit guarantee scheme requirements across multiple jurisdictions, each with unique regulatory standards. Using the bank’s existing Microsoft tooling, we built a scalable, low-code solution that processed over 100,000 customer records while empowering local teams to manage it without IT support. The system automated jurisdiction-specific checks, flagged data quality issues, and provided actionable insights through intuitive dashboards and alerts. As a result, the bank achieved improved data accuracy, regulatory compliance, and cost savings, all while reducing reliance on central IT resources.
