Background and Discussion:
We were seeking to replace our existing internally hosted audit management software with a more
robust, cloud-based software. The software change will achieve the following:
1. Move from a county on-premises server to the cloud will cut down on error-driven
downtime and reduce usage of Universal Services resources;
2. Access latest system updates when available, minimizing Auditor downtime and Universal Services involvement to update the system;
3. Enhance our ability to operate within standards established by the Institute of Internal Auditors(IIA), the authoritative body for internal audit;
4. Improve our ability to report on progress and department metrics in real time; and
5. Provide a more user-friendly experience and enables deeper insights in a timely, costeffective manner for more informed business decisions.
