Don’t Let Your Day-To-Day Take Away Planning For Someday

As a manager of risk there’s a lot you need to account for, manage, and respond to in a day. It’s easy to get lost focusing on what’s required of you at the moment with so many competing priorities. As a result, proactive risk management and assessing open risk exposures can be a challenge. You can’t get caught up looking in the rearview mirror.

Determining and executing your internal audit plan is difficult when you’re missing adequate resources in-house or being asked to do more with less for the year. And whether you have an internal audit department or not, sometimes you also may be missing the right expertise to assess your most critical areas of risk.


Our internal audit advisory services are designed for mid- to large-size businesses looking for outsourcing or co-sourcing support to enhance their internal audit function.

Centri’s solutions cover governance, risk management, internal controls, and risk-based operational audits to support management’s business objectives across all three lines of defense. With our unique approach, you’ll have a partner to help provide the resources, quality, and foresight you need.

Our goal is to help support your objectives by making sure you come away with action-oriented reporting that’s clear and detail-oriented, so you understand what next steps to take for risk mitigation and enhancement.
