GLOBAL RISK AUDIT MANAGEMENT PLATFORM
OVERVIEW
A multinational enterprise needed a scalable way to manage facility risk audits across hundreds of sites worldwide. The existing process relied on manual data extraction from lengthy audit reports and spreadsheet-based tracking, creating significant operational overhead. Fiduciary Tech built a centralized, cloud-native risk audit platform that automated audit intake, remediation tracking, and stakeholder communication—eliminating approximately 500 hours of manual work each year while providing real-time visibility into risk exposure.
THE CHALLENGE
Facility risk audits were conducted annually by external insurance partners, producing lengthy reports—often 50 pages or more—for each audited site. Previously, these reports were emailed to internal teams, manually processed to extract key information, and tracked using decentralized, spreadsheet-based workflows.
This process introduced several challenges:
• Heavy manual effort to extract, organize, and maintain audit data
• Fragmented visibility across facilities, audits, and findings
• Limited standardization in how remediation status was collected and tracked
• Inefficient communication between risk teams, insurance partners, and site owners
As the Risk function expanded globally, the client needed a purpose-built system to manage audits end-to-end—from pre-visit preparation through findings remediation—at enterprise scale.
OUR SOLUTION
Fiduciary Tech designed and implemented a custom, cloud-native risk audit platform tailored to the needs of facility risk teams and site operators. The solution replaced fragmented, spreadsheet-based processes with a centralized system that ingests structured audit data directly into the platform after AI-based extraction, eliminating manual handoffs and data duplication.
The platform supports end-to-end audit workflows. Prior to an audit, sites receive automated notifications prompting them to prepare and upload required documentation. Key audit details—such as facility information, planned dates, and points of contact—are captured upfront to ensure readiness.
After audits are completed, reports are processed and stored centrally. Each facility maintains a historical record of audits, risk metrics, communication activity, and findings. Individual audit findings are tracked as discrete records, allowing risk teams to monitor remediation progress by facility, region, and severity.
To close the loop, the platform automates communication with site owners. Risk teams can initiate structured emails that summarize findings by severity and link recipients directly to a recommendation closure form. Once a site owner responds, remediation status is automatically updated, ensuring accurate, up-to-date reporting without manual follow-up.
KEY FEATURES
