Our internal audit in 3D framework
An effective internal audit function is the one that is right for the organization; we understand each organization is different. Our new internal audit maturity assessment and transformation framework considers these multiple dimensions so that you can design a blueprint for success and build a sustainable function that is ‘fit-for-purpose’ and ready to meet current and future challenges.
It is important to understand what level of maturity of an internal audit function is possible, however we understand that the top level of maturity may not be the desired goal.
PwC can help by performing an assessment of your internal audit function against our internal audit in 3D framework and provide opportunities to align with leading practices based on your desired maturity level.
