Case Study: Van Lanschot achieves centralized, secure automated audit management with Ideagen's Pentana

Pentana provides leading Dutch bank with automated audit management tool

Van Lanschot Bankiers, the Netherlands’ oldest independent private bank, needed to modernise its Group Audit function when the department relocated and teams began working across multiple offices. Relying on hardcopy audit files risked compromising confidential information and made access and collaboration impractical, so the audit team sought an automated audit management solution that could be deployed quickly and securely.

They selected Ideagen’s Pentana, implemented through partner Sepia Solutions, using largely out-of-the-box functionality and focused training for a fast rollout. Pentana provided a central, secure electronic repository, a structured audit workflow, centralised reporting and progress monitoring—improving collaboration, audit effectiveness and control—and the team reported immediate, tangible benefits after going live.
