Stop Audit Findings From Becoming Operational Failures
The Last Mile of Assurance
Closing Findings Before They Become Failures
Your internal audit just flagged a critical control weakness. The report sits in someone’s inbox. Weeks pass. Priorities shift. And the risk that was “identified and managed” remains wide open.
This is the last mile problem: findings get documented, but remediation stalls, gets deprioritised, or closes superficially with “paper solutions” that don’t address the underlying issue.
This guide shows you why remediation fails, what it costs organisations when it does, and provides a practical framework to manage actions from finding to genuine closure.
What’s Inside
This comprehensive guide includes:
15 assurance report types and how to identify which findings pose the highest operational risk
5 organisation case studies that failed to close critical findings and the consequences they faced
7 root causes of remediation delays and practical solutions to address each one
Full remediation lifecycle framework from triage through validation and closure
6 metrics and KPIs that measure genuine risk reduction
3 phase implementation roadmap to build effective remediation governance in your organisation
