Case Study: Ivanhoé Cambridge achieves early detection of duplicate payments and rapid ROI with CaseWare Analytics (IDEA)

Ivanhoé Cambridge - Customer Case Study

Ivanhoe Cambridge, a global real estate company managing over Cdn$42 billion in assets, needed to move beyond spreadsheet-based audits to increase audit scope and extract value from varied, changing data. To address this, they selected CaseWare Analytics’ IDEA® Data Analysis to implement Computer Aided Audit Techniques (CAATs) and strengthen IT and audit testing.

CaseWare Analytics deployed IDEA® to provide fast import and analysis of large datasets, an Office-like UI that drove high user adoption, and cost-effective licensing. Using features such as fuzzy logic to detect duplicate payments and Benford’s Law to spot anomalies, Ivanhoe Cambridge expanded IDEA across audit mandates, achieved ROI within the first year, and plans to extend its use to operational efficiency audits.
