Links SOX Controls with Audit ProgramsWilmington, DE, October 2008— Aline today announced enhanced Internal Audit functionality for its popular Aline Intelligent GRC solution. This feature is designed for companies conducting operational and financial audits, in addition to traditional SOX testing. Aline now allows Internal Auditors to build a library of step-driven programs and their inherent steps that enable them to simply select a program “off the shelf” when performing an actual audit for any particular location. Specialized management requests can also be met with this enhancement.
"We chose to use Aline because of its seamless integration between the SOX module and Internal Audit. Linking our SOX program to our traditional Audit Programs allows us to have everything in one area, gives us more visibility and transparency, and allows for more reporting,” stated Joe Ellis, Director of Internal Audit, Carpenter Technology Corporation.
“This is great for companies where the Internal Audit department is doing more testing, and wants to combine the self-assessment aspects of traditional SOX with an internal audit program orientation,” says Roland Mosimann, CEO Aline. “Moving to more of a GRC approach, allows them to see what controls they want to test independently. This can only be accomplished by using a common GRC platform, like Aline.”
With the Internal Audit enhancement, clients can structure their audit by choosing a risk/control framework orientation, a traditional audit program orientation, or both. This functionality is available immediately on Aline’s GRC platform and priced according to usage.
The company’s Aline applications address operational GRC issues in a cost effective manner, raise the visibility of department solutions across the enterprise through sophisticated assessment tools, and provide strategic analytics and effective oversight for C-level executives and Board members.
