The Diligent audit analytic capability model

How to get from basic data analysis to continuous monitoring

Internal auditors are masters of hindsight. But to provide executives with the visibility and assurance they need, audit teams must become more forward-looking. Delivering insights into current and future organizational risks is critical to success.

Looking at vast data sets will give you these insights, but many organizations still need analytics capabilities to get meaningful information. That’s why Diligent developed the Audit Analytic Capability Model, a framework to help audit teams assess their analytic maturity level and understand how to reach the next level.

In this white paper, you’ll learn:

• The analytic techniques and benefits at the five progressive levels.
• Common challenges, risks, and tips to optimize your people, process, and technology.
• Real-life examples of organizations delivering new value through audit analytics.
