Case Study: Leading Consumer Goods Company achieves centralized global audit programs and unified GRC visibility with MetricStream Audit Management Solution

Leading Consumer Goods Company Centralizes Global Audit Programs With Metricstream Audit Management Solution

A leading multinational consumer goods company with hundreds of brands and billions of customers relied on a distributed global audit team but faced a legacy system that created manual communications, fragmented information silos, inefficient processes, and poor coordination with other GRC initiatives—making it hard to track audits, risks, controls and issues across countries and business units.

In phase one the company implemented MetricStream Audit Management to centralize the audit universe and automate planning, execution, issue management and reporting (including offline capability and a centralized control library). The solution unified global audit and compliance-assessment processes, improved collaboration and real-time visibility, reduced redundancies and administrative overhead, accelerated workflows, and delivered dashboards and insights to support better, faster strategic decisions.
