IRSL’s Internal Audit Co-Sourcing professionals provide organizations with all of the technical and expert resources they require on-demand, without the need to hire full-time staff.

Internal auditing is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organization’s operations. It helps an organization accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes.”

– Definition of Internal Auditing, Institute of Internal Auditors IIA

For entities of all sizes, hiring and motivating specialized resources in-house is nearly impossible. That's why it makes sense to partner with a firm like IRSL to provide specialties such as technology auditors or fraud examiners. At IRSL, we can provide you with access to specialists at rates that are competitive with in-house resources.

IRSL’s internal audit co-sourcing solutions enable organizations to determine how best to fit not only their project needs, but also their budgets. Carrying underutilized Full Time Equivalents (FTEs) in terms of salary and benefits for an entire year can be very costly for not only an Internal Audit Department but an organization as whole.
