“Being efficient with our time is critical, given that we have a small team of only four people. The level of risk for financial institutions is not decreasing, it’s ever increasing, so we have to be extremely efficient.”
“Prior to AuditBoard, we were primarily in Excel, and that brought a whole host of issues from version control; we didn’t know who was making what changes where. Now, AuditBoard’s real-time version control tracking saves us a whole lot of time and stress.”
“Having AuditBoard in place has given me the ability to look at things from a higher level than I would otherwise because I don’t have to get stuck in the details on a day-to-day basis. I don’t have to track down emails or ask people where their control confirmations are at — the system takes care of all that for me. It gives me the ability to take a broader view of the organization, and also add more value through consulting work and ad hoc projects that I wouldn’t otherwise be able to do.”
“My most recent audit experience was as a senior consultant at a large consulting firm. A lot of my clients did not use a platform or software for SOX, so I felt like a lot of my administration responsibilities were pretty tedious and very manual.”
“We are a leader in residential, commercial, and industrial installation and building materials. And we have about 400+ locations in the United States and now in Canada — we recently had a pretty large acquisition, and are now an international company.”
“A big part of a manager’s job at that point is keeping status and being able to report on testing status. All that changed when we went over to AuditBoard, because AuditBoard gives you instant status at all times. I’ve been able to put together dashboards to keep status with my team and understand where they’re at. Also, quarterly reporting to stakeholders within management has been streamlined.”
“Texas Farm Credit is a lending institution that’s owned by its borrowers and provides lending for agricultural land and operations. It’s a co-led audit department between me and the Senior Credit Reviewer, Jake Varner. We lead the organization in mitigating risk and maintaining security for our borrowers, so that we can remain safe and sound in the industry.”
"Our users used to each spend an hour rating the different risks — with RiskOversight, that process went down to about 20 minutes. We went from a several week process of administering the survey, digesting results, building your report, and presenting that to management — to it being a one man show."
"AuditBoard elevated the depth and consistency of engagements with risk teams, process owners, and external auditors, fostering risk-aware insights. Our efforts have extended to a broader landscape, facilitating heightened influence and impact."
“Having Audit, SOX, and ERM in one platform allowed us to see where there was overlap and gaps between different risk universes, providing better risk coverage to the business.”
“AuditBoard reduced the barriers. Now we’re seen as the people they trust to get the right information and viewed as trusted business partners.”
"AuditBoard has been a huge valueadd by aligning all our teams on a centralized view of our vulnerabilities across the organization, ensuring we can identify, triage, and action the most pressing risks to keep our business growing securely."
“Having the ability to cover more risk and ensuring that we can expand further is very important. Because if we’re very siloed to only being able to cover or execute on a certain number of risks, having that expanded focus allows us to do more.”
“A lot of this is about understanding how our customers benefit from good risk management and taking that through the entire process regardless of whether it’s complicated, simple, it touches a customer directly, or something that we monitor to make sure that our processes are working correctly.”
“Every single person assigned to self-assess a control, or that’s assigned to do SOX testing, is touching that control throughout the year. That applies to everyone throughout our organization across the globe. That brings an awareness to our organization that goes beyond anything I’ve seen at any other company.”
