“They walked our finance exception register line by line and caught three entries that had been ‘temporarily’ open for over a year. The remediation tracker was plain enough for our audit committee pack without a rewrite.”
Client stories
What internal audit teams said after the work
Comments below reference specific Digi Auto Hub engagements—register reviews, health checks, follow-up testing, and briefings.
“The health check was shorter than I expected, which I appreciated before committee week. I did wish we had scheduled the debrief earlier—our owners needed more than one hour to react—but the ageing chart alone justified the fee.”
“Follow-up testing showed two closures we had marked complete still lacked weekly review evidence. Uncomfortable, but better before the committee asked.”
“The briefing used our own redacted exception forms, not generic slides. New approvers finally stopped writing ‘extra care will be taken’ as the compensating control.”
Extended story
Manufacturing group, Taichung — register clean-up before year-end
The internal audit manager inherited a finance exception register with 64 open items and inconsistent expiry dates. Digi Auto Hub ran a Policy Exception Review Engagement over five weeks, sampling the full population for high-risk policies and a stratified sample for the rest.
Constraints
Evidence lived partly in paper approval slips at plant finance desks. Two site visits were required. Mandarin findings summaries were prepared for control owners; the committee pack stayed in English.
Outcome
Eleven items were reclassified as expired-without-extension. Seven compensating controls failed re-performance. The remediation tracker fed the next two committee cycles; a later Remediation Follow-up Audit confirmed five of seven closures with fresh evidence.
