Case Study: Fortune 500 Semiconductor Manufacturing Company centralizes global audit management and strengthens audit visibility with MetricStream

Fortune 500 Semiconductor Manufacturer Centralizes Audit Management, Strengthens Visibility into Audit Activities and Data across Multiple Countries

A Fortune 500 semiconductor manufacturer with operations across multiple countries faced inefficient, manual audit processes—relying on spreadsheets and slide decks—that scattered data, consumed significant audit resources, and limited visibility into global audit activities. Coordinating and tracking multiple audits across regions strained the internal audit team and hindered timely, risk-informed decision-making.

The company implemented MetricStream Audit Management to create a single, scalable system of record for more than 80 auditors worldwide. The solution centralized auditable entities, risks, controls, and findings; enabled risk-based planning, automated workflows, offline fieldwork via an Audit Briefcase, real-time issue tracking, and graphical dashboards. As a result, audits became more efficient and consistent, enterprise-wide visibility and reporting improved, and stakeholders could make faster, better-informed decisions.
