Internal audit co-sourcing, Sarbanes-Oxley advisory, quality assurance reviews, and Agile audit implementation.
Clients cannot focus on just today — what works now most likely will not work in the future. GoldSRD's advisory professionals are focused on the future so you can focus on today. Four practices, one standard:
Achieving effective internal audit capabilities requires significant investment in skilled resources, methodology, and professional development — which is why internal audit is consistently a primary candidate for strategic sourcing.
GoldSRD employs a pragmatic, risk-based approach that directly relates to your objectives and the impediments to achieving them. Sourcing takes many forms, each with its own degree of ownership and mix of fixed and variable costs — we create the plan that maximizes value while optimizing cost.
We help organizations implement and maintain sustainable SOX 404 compliance programs:
We work closely with your team to transfer knowledge and provide training so the program succeeds long after the engagement ends.
Every internal audit department must obtain an external assessment at least every five years to maintain conformance with the IIA Standards — regardless of industry, sector, or audit staff size.
GoldSRD assists with both internal assessments and external independent reviews. We don't just validate compliance with the Standards — we look for efficiency and effectiveness gains and apply industry-leading practices to continue maturing your internal audit function.
Agile has become prevalent in internal audit — and is still widely misunderstood. Scrum is not a one-size-fits-all implementation.
GoldSRD starts with the most important step: the Agile Maturity Assessment, covering your corporate culture, current project management methodologies, organizational understanding of Agile, and the skillset of your audit team. From there we build an implementation plan that fits — so internal audit can focus on stakeholder needs, accelerate audit cycles, drive timely insights, and reduce waste.
From a five-year QAIP review to a full co-sourcing model — we'll scope it with you.
