Assurance Without Limits: Rethinking QAIP - 7 October

QAIP MANAGEMENT · INTEGRATED RISK & AUDIT

Conformance that is current.
Not reconstructed once a year.

Standard 8.3 requires a quality assurance and improvement programme — assessed internally and externally, and reported to the board at least annually. This runs that programme end to end, and keeps the evidence.

Free while in preview. Open to a limited number of internal audit functions.

Two records, kept apart: what was proposed, and what a person concluded.

Every platform will let AI near quality assurance

None of them can show you where a human disagreed

The proposal and the rating are two records.
Which is the only reason anyone can tell you, afterwards, how often a human disagreed.

A standard enters the assessment. Nothing is rated yet.

Divergence rate

accrues as ratings are decided

No evidence, no proposal.

Suggestion is pull-based and refused at the API when nothing is attached. Judgement-only standards are excluded entirely.

Nothing is scored.

Generally conforms, partially conforms, does not conform — decided by a named assessor. No confidence percentages, by design.

Deficiencies cannot leave quietly.

Does-not-conform ratings trigger an action plan, with downgrades reported to the CAE and included in the board pack.

Three surfaces, one record

01

Setup

Define the scope, select the framework, and create an internal (12.1) or external (8.4) quality assessment.

02

Standards assessment

The working surface. Evidence, proposal, decision and improvement action against every standard in scope.

03

Conformance intelligence

Conformance, coverage and divergence across assessments over time, in the shape the committee reads.

Built for the three people who read it

Chief Audit Executive

Standard 8.3 places the programme with you personally. One assessment record, evidenced throughout, submitted without a fortnight of assembly.

Board or audit committee

Receives conformance, coverage and divergence in a single pack — evidence that a person decided, not an assurance that one did.

Independent external assessor

An append-only trail, pinned to the evidence that produced it. Faster to review under Standard 8.4, and harder to argue with.

Ready before the assessor arrives.

Built against the Global Internal Audit Standards, 2024 edition. Take a single standard, attach the evidence you already hold, and review what comes back.
