After a wave of outsourcing rage, several blunt critiques against this process have arisen, notably because of unsuccessful experiences. Out of the most criticized outsourcing experiences, we highlight the outsourcing of the Legal Departments and Internal Audit Departments.
In our opinion, the relative failure of such processes was mainly due to the fact that outsourcing was carried out with professionals or companies that were totally unaware of the reality of the companies to which they started to provide those services. Not knowing intimately the characteristics, especially those of human relations and "unwritten norms", these professionals fail to provide their services.
In the view of companies receiving the service the criticism is not always about the technical quality of the service, but often about the form of relationship outsourced X outsourcer and the feeling of the company that, when outsourcing the service, no longer receive a treatment customized and tailored to your needs.
Intelligent Outsourcing
In the business world it is impossible for a small group of professionals to master such dynamic and complex matters as finance, taxes, computer systems, legislation in general, human resources, etc. The internal audit departments of companies can not bring together professionals with all these experiences, because the cost of keeping all these professionals as employees would be enormous. As a consequence, important work in vital areas is not performed or performed improperly.
Advance Auditores has proposed to those who seek it to outsource their Internal Audit Departments to carry out this administrative process in its own way, that is, partially.
The Complementation of Internal Audit Services is a successful experience already implemented by our firm in some of its clients.
And how is it accomplished? It seeks to merge the experience of the existing professionals in the area of internal audit of the company with the professionals of Advance Auditores.
At the beginning of the work, the company's top management is established with the needs and expectations it has regarding its Internal Audit Department. Then, in conjunction with the Internal Auditor of the company, we have established an audit schedule that will be executed by our professionals, using the experience accumulated by the Internal Auditor, generating a true synergy between the professional of the house and our team of experienced professionals in various areas.
And This Would Not Be A Cost Rise?
Not really! The company was possibly not being fully met by existing staff either because of insufficient staff numbers or because of the lack of professional expertise required.
As an example, if the company needed an audit in its computerized systems, it would have to hire a professional to perform a work that should be done perhaps every two years. The same could be said of a job in the area of Personnel or Human Resources. And what about direct tax and indirect tax audits? And the management audit?
With the Complementation of Internal Audit Services you use our professional in the necessary expertise, only at the right time, without the cost of keeping you "on the shelf" the rest of the time.
The advantages of an Internal Audit Compliance process are numerous. |
