Independent Internal Control

With Independent Internal Control in Key Control Dashboard (in Dutch: verbijzonderde interne controle, VIC), you get a firm grip on controls, regularity and compliance. You record controls centrally and automate workflows, which gives you more insight, better evidence and stronger control.

Demonstrable control

In many organisations, controls, evidence and test results are spread across different systems and documents. That makes it hard to keep an overview, and follow-up takes a lot of manual work. With Independent Internal Control, you centralise controls, control testing and reporting in one environment. That gives you more control over regularity, compliance and the evidence behind them.

More structure in controls and accountability

The module helps you carry out, monitor and record internal controls. You link controls directly to processes, risks and frameworks, so you see deviations, open actions and compliance status sooner. With workflows, dashboards and evidence organised centrally, you manage more efficiently and are better prepared for audits and accountability.

Why organisations choose Independent Internal Control

The module brings controls, evidence and follow-up together in one central environment. That gives you a better grip on regularity, compliance and demonstrable control.

Controls and risks in view

Link controls directly to processes, risks and frameworks.

More insight into regularity

Work from dashboards and reports with real-time insight into deviations and control results.

Demonstrably in control

Record controls, evidence and follow-up centrally in one easy-to-manage environment.

More insight into internal control

Here’s how Independent Internal Control helps you in practice: from central records to real-time insight and support for frameworks.

One central environment for controls and evidence

Controls, evidence, workflows and reports come together in one central environment. That gives you a clearer overview and avoids fragmentation across separate systems, Excel files and documents. All information stays available in one place, so you see the status of controls sooner and show more easily how processes are designed and carried out.

Real-time insight into regularity and compliance

Dashboards give you direct insight into control results, deviations and open actions. You see sooner where risks arise, which controls need extra attention and where follow-up is needed. That supports timely decisions and keeps regularity and compliance visible at all times.

Controls linked to processes and risks

You link every control to processes, risks and frameworks. That shows which measures cover which risks and where there are gaps in your control. By recording these links centrally, you build a better-founded control framework that’s easier to manage and keep up to date.

Less manual work, more consistent execution

Standardised workflows support control testing, follow-up and evidence. That reduces manual work and ensures internal controls are carried out consistently across your organisation. At the same time, roles, permissions and responsibilities stay clearly defined, which keeps governance in place.

Support for frameworks and governance

The module supports organisations that work with frameworks such as COSO Internal Control and COSO ERM, and with regularity reporting in the Dutch public and semi-public sector. Through links with other governance, risk and compliance processes, you get an integrated way of working that grows with your organisation and with changing laws and regulations.
