Services and Solutions
The majority of organisations today are highly reliant on information systems, which are constantly augmented, increasingly sophisticated and extensively networked. This increased use of complex packages, outsourcing and greater networking means that there is greater interdependence and higher risk.
Our solutions are tailored to help business leaders address their critical IT issues, and range from IT investment and security strategies through to deployment of cost effective solutions.
Unlocking the Value of Information Systems Investment: The current climate of economic uncertainty forces businesses to rigorously challenge their investment in information systems. Lack of transparency in IT spend and lack of Return on Investment considerations, make it difficult for Board members to take strategic decisions on IT investment, in the confidence they are not jeopardising longer term business growth.
Ernst & Young can work with you to bring an independent view, commercial reality and clear benefit realisation to your information systems investment . You will be able to leverage our knowledge of leading practice to help you define, manage and monitor key elements of your IT investments in strategy, infrastructure, IT programmes and projects, security and outsourced arrangements.
IT Risk Management and Assurance: Of all business risks, IT risks may be the most challenging to understand and manage. Technology changes continually, and each change cascades through your company and creates new risks. Ernst & Young works with you to help you understand and effectively manage your existing — and emerging — IT risks. We provide a clear framework to evaluate your risks, and offer proven tools and methodologies to assess, control, monitor and measure them.
IT Internal Audit Services: Expectations of Internal Audit functions are higher than ever and it is increasingly difficult for those functions to provide experienced coverage of today's risks, meet management's growing expectations of value added recommendations, and consider risks related to future (and rapidly changing) IT environment. Internal audit functions are beginning to meet these challenges and many world-class organisations are teaming with outside providers to expand their capabilities and exceed management’s expectations. Our Internal Audit solutions bring together experienced IT risk professionals, extensive knowledge bases, tools and technologies to provide a wide range of help ranging from assessing your current IT audit function to supplementing your existing resources in speciality areas or providing a full IT audit function.
