RISK MANAGEMENT: proactive stand, criticality of IA function, strategic planning and control framework
The fundamental to our Internal Audit approach is mitigation of risks. As the old adage goes, 'prevention is better than cure', we believe that a proactive mechanism that can identify and assess risks and design controls to check them would be far superior to the one which might act upon them at any later stage. Alike is our approach which spreads across the enterprise with greater attention to risk prone areas.
We understand that managing risks is crucial to any organization. So we prepare our internal audit plans based on risks that challenge the conduct of your business, business operations and business processes at every level. Astral has an excellent knowledge base and has developed more than 1500 risks and controls in all the functional areas right from Finance, Production Planning, Production, Material Management, etc.
With a resolve to mitigate risk we develop strategies and plans for Internal Audit. They would include a combination of solutions that would continually add value to the management and enhance the effectiveness of operations (Ex: information technology, purchase-to-pay process, order-to-cash process, regulatory compliance).
We provide assistance in mounting an effective risk management framework with efficient control systems. Also we help fine tuning procedures and controls that would support routine operations and decision making
