Integrated Assurance Framework

Cybertech Risk Consultants recently partnered with a complex enterprise that had assurance activities scattered across multiple functions โ€” risk, compliance, internal audit, operational management, and external providers. While each was working diligently, leadership had little visibility into how these layers connected or where key gaps remained.

The business needed a unified, strategic view of assurance โ€” not more checklists.

ย 

๐Ÿ” The Challenge

Despite multiple assurance reviews happening across the organisation, they were siloed. Duplication was creating fatigue, gaps were going unnoticed, and there was no single source of truth for what assurance had been performed โ€” or where the next risk might emerge. Compounding this, regulatory pressure and a growing risk appetite meant assurance needed to evolve beyond โ€œtick the boxโ€ activity.

ย 

๐Ÿง  Our Approach

We worked alongside key leaders from risk, audit, compliance, and finance to map the current assurance ecosystem โ€” identifying overlaps, blind spots, and misalignments. From there, we designed and delivered a structured Integrated Assurance Plan, tailored to their risk profile and operational context.

The solution helped them:

  • Link assurance to enterprise risks and strategic objectives

  • Eliminate duplication across functions

  • Improve board and executive visibility

  • Reduce fatigue for business units receiving multiple reviews

  • Build a more proactive, agile response to emerging risks

The plan didn’t just sit on a shelf โ€” it became a working model that continues to evolve with the business.

๐Ÿ“ˆ The Result

By aligning their assurance efforts, our client gained clarity, efficiency, and confidence. Assurance activities are now coordinated, meaningful, and targeted at what matters most. Reporting has become sharper and more strategic, empowering executives to make informed, risk-aligned decisions.
