Shaping the Internal Audit Function of the Future
From Vision to Value, We’re Transforming Trust with Technology.
Internal Audit (IA) requirements are constantly evolving, yet constraints on resources can make it difficult to keep up. We help our clients to elevate their impact by infusing value at every stage of the internal audit process. We team with your IA function to deliver purpose driven, digitally powered internal audits leveraging automation, analytics, dynamic risk assessment, and agile methodology that align with your strategy. Let us help you anticipate risk and put the right processes and controls in place today to meet the challenges of the future.
Forging the Internal Audit function of tomorrow depends on the steps taken today to infuse value throughout the IA life cycle. Deloitte IA can advise your organization to anticipate risks, cultivate trust, employ emerging technology, and accelerate organizational change to meet new challenges. We help you deliver desired business outcomes using a four-pronged approach—enhancing, advancing, addressing, and adapting.

Our approach, your advantage
As an alternative to an in-house-only function, many companies outsource or co-source with Deloitte to gain access to industry leaders, subject-matter specialists, and global teams. The outsourced provider invests in training, tools, technology, and intellectual capital, while company management still maintains control and has a single point of accountability. This flexible, scalable approach offers benefits such as lower fixed costs, staffing flexibility, and access to the latest technology, among many others.
