Case Study: Altra Motion achieves remote audit continuity and real-time control visibility with AuditBoard

How Altra Motion’s Internal Audit Team Leverages Tech to Get Ahead During a Crisis

Altra Motion is a global manufacturer of power transmission and motion control products whose internal audit team — led by Director Alex Chin — needed a flexible, scalable audit program after a transformational merger and amid the COVID‑19 crisis. To centralize work across doubled locations and support a newly remote workforce, Altra Motion selected AuditBoard’s cloud-based audit management solution to provide a single hub for controls, documentation, and team activities.

AuditBoard delivered a cloud platform and WorkStream capabilities that centralized audits, gave role‑based access to external auditors, and automated tasks like representation letters. The solution let Altra quickly assess COVID impacts, maintain visibility while teams worked remotely, and cut duplicative document requests; Chin estimates AuditBoard saved roughly 0.5–0.75 FTE in reconciliation time, while enabling broader use across corporate finance.
