Northwind Bank gets exam-ready

How Northwind Bank worked with us on gets exam-ready.

Zero repeat evidence requests
Our last exam was the calmest we've had. Everything the examiner asked for was already there.Karim Meier, VP Engineering, Northwind Bank

The challenge

Exam preparation consumed weeks of manual evidence gathering, and the same control artefacts were re-requested from the business every cycle.

Our approach

Control tests and their evidence moved into a single workspace with provenance, so internal audit could pull an evidence pack on demand instead of chasing the business.

The result

Evidence-gathering time for the annual exam fell by 70%, and repeat requests to the business effectively stopped.
