Internal Audit
Reducing your exposure to unpleasant surprises, mitigating risks and exploiting opportunities
Deloitte’s Internal Audit (IA) services help companies look below the surface to achieve superior performance through a full range of outsourcing, co-sourcing, and advisory services – including technology and data analytics. Partnering with or working as a client’s IA function, Deloitte transforms these functions to achieve a high level of performance, assisting with enhancing process efficiency, fraud detection, operational quality, internal control, and regulatory compliance. We enhance the overall value delivered by IA functions through strengthening quality, flexibility, efficiency, and value. Additionally, Deloitte helps clients extend their IA oversight to gain a greater understanding of key enterprise risks, such as evolving IT systems, applications, and other technologies.
Our services:
- Internal audit strategy, effectiveness advisory, and review - We help organizations strengthen the effectiveness of their IA function, including through transformational activities and strategy development or redesign. We also perform independent effectiveness reviews of IA functions, typically evaluating conformance with Institute of Internal Auditor (IIA) standards, comparing IA’s practices against leading practices and assessing IA’s performance relative to stakeholder needs and expectations.
- Internal audit outsourcing and co-sourcing - We assist clients in the deployment of their IA capabilities, ranging from performing all of the organization’s IA activities through an outsourced model, to collaborating with an in-house IA function to co-source the delivery of their activities.
- Data-driven internal audit - We help our clients to use their data to obtain an effective risk management tool within their organizations, which can better identify the root causes of problems and effectively perform tests within their control mechanisms.
- Internal controls advisory services - Our team will help you optimize your control environment from design assessment, through testing the operational efficiency of internal controls, their optimization and possible automation. We will help you with the evaluation of the internal control environment according to the COSO framework, or with the implementation and testing of compliance with the requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley, ISO 27000, COBIT or other similar regulations.
- Information technology internal audit - We serve as subject-matter advisors (or as part of the outsourced/co-sourced IA function) to help organizations evaluate and address risks related to IT, including applications, networks and infrastructure.
