Agility.
A boutique internal audit and advisory firm. We strengthen governance, optimize operations, and make risk something you manage with confidence — not something that manages you.
Expert Services That Drive Real Results
We provide expert internal audit, risk advisory, and process optimization services — delivering tailored solutions that strengthen governance, manage risk, and enhance efficiency.
External Quality Assessments (EQA)
We conduct External Quality Assessments (EQAs) under the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) — the global benchmark for internal audit standards, requirements, and guidance. Every assessment is led by a Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) and Certified IIA Quality Assessor with direct EQA field experience.
The IIA’s 2025 Global Internal Audit Standards require every internal audit function to complete an EQA at least once every five years. We deliver that assessment with the rigor and methodology the standards demand — and the speed and transparency that modern audit committees expect.
What We Assess
- Full EQAs and Validation EQAs for mid-market and large organizations
- All three IIA assessment components: evidence review, stakeholder interviews, and optional surveys
- Conformance ratings across all IIA 2025 standards domains (Generally Conforms, Partially Conforms, Does Not Conform)
- Board-ready findings reports with actionable recommendations
What Makes Us Different
- Certified IIA Quality Assessor with the IIA’s standardized methodology, evidence checklists, and interview questionnaires already embedded in our process
- Engagements completed in 4–6 weeks of active fieldwork (industry average: 8–12 weeks)
- Live findings visibility throughout the engagement — clients see conformance scores and evidence status in real time, not weeks after fieldwork closes
- One-click board-ready report generation in under one hour (replacing the traditional 30–80 page Word document produced 2–4 weeks post-fieldwork)
Client Outcome:
EQA completed faster, with full transparency, through a client experience no manual process can match
