These innovative features aim to assist customers in streamlining their daily workflows, ultimately saving time and enhancing the value delivered through their auditing processes.

Importance of AI in Modern Workflows

In today’s fast-paced business environment, organizations are recognizing the need for artificial intelligence to optimize their operations. Recent research conducted by AuditBoard in collaboration with Ascend2 Research revealed that 89 percent of organizations are eager to adopt AI technologies, but they often face hurdles, such as concerns regarding data privacy and the associated costs. AuditBoard's new AI enhancements build upon existing automation capabilities, aiming to provide a modern connected risk platform that facilitates effective risk management.

New Features Unveiled

The latest offerings from AuditBoard include several advanced features designed to reduce the manual workload associated with audits and compliance tasks. These features encompass:

  • Automated Vendor Assessments: This feature allows risk management teams to automate the process of sending, completing, and reviewing vendor questionnaires. Instead of manually sifting through data, the AI-powered capability utilizes historical assessments to generate responses, simplifying vendor evaluations.
  • Intelligent Staffing: Staffing projects often requires balancing numerous factors like budgets, skill sets, and timelines, which can be cumbersome. Intelligent Staffing leverages AI to analyze team members’ expertise and availability, facilitating optimal resource allocation and reducing project timelines.
  • Automated Framework Updates: Staying compliant with shifting regulatory frameworks can be a complex task. AuditBoard’s Automated Framework Updates feature automatically transfers relevant compliance data to the updated frameworks, allowing teams to quickly identify required actions and ensuring efficient compliance maintenance.
