The challenge

Does this sound familiar?

Auditors arrive with long request lists. Evidence scattered across multiple systems. You spend months assembling proof of compliance. Findings get lost. Remediation progress disappears after audit closes.

How Fig helps

Audit Management with Fig

Audit Planning

Pre-audit planning with scope definition, sampling strategy, and testing approach documented. Auditor requirements gathered and tracked systematically.

Evidence Curation

Evidence curated continuously and pre-packaged by control. Auditors navigate a structured audit portal instead of hunting for files. Sampling data and statistical analysis provided automatically. All evidence secured with a tamper-evident audit chain using SHA256 payload hashing and append-only logging.

Finding Management

Findings logged with severity, evidence links, and ownership assignment. Remediation plans tracked with milestones. Status updates push to team leads and managers automatically.

Audit Reporting

Automated executive summaries, finding trends, and control effectiveness analysis. Comparative reports across multiple audits show compliance trajectory.

Core Capability

Fig manages the full audit lifecycle from programme planning through engagement execution to findings closure, with auditor independence verification, risk-based prioritisation, and on-demand audit pack generation including clause matrices and evidence indexes.

Audit-ready workflow

How Audit Management becomes evidence

Audit Management should not be treated as a standalone tool surface. In Fig it is part of a governed workflow: a signal is captured, an owner is assigned, a control or risk is updated, and evidence is retained so the organisation can prove what happened later.

Lifecycle

Where it sits in the operating model

The Prove phase is where this capability sits in the wider Fig operating model. Auditors arrive with long request lists. Evidence scattered across multiple systems. You spend months assembling proof of compliance. Findings get lost. Remediation progress disappears after audit closes. Fig turns that problem into a repeatable lifecycle so MSPs, risk teams, and auditors are not relying on static spreadsheets or ad hoc screenshots when a buyer asks for proof.

Evidence captured

What auditors and buyers see

For audit management, useful evidence normally includes the triggering record, the affected asset or supplier, the control requirement, the assigned owner, the decision made, the timestamp, and the outcome. That evidence is mapped back to frameworks such as Cyber Essentials, ISO 27001, NIS2, DORA, GDPR, CMMC, and internal policy requirements where relevant.

Implementation checks

Four steps to roll this out

  • 01Define who owns audit management and what events should trigger review.
  • 02Connect the relevant source systems so evidence is collected continuously.
  • 03Map outputs to the frameworks and policies that matter to the organisation.
  • 04Review exceptions, accepted risks, and overdue actions before audit or renewal.

Independent sources buyers and auditors recognise

The exact evidence required still depends on your scope, risk profile, sector, and framework obligations.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Can external auditors access the audit portal?

Yes. You control auditor portal access and what evidence is visible. External auditors can log findings directly, reducing email back-and-forth and evidence transcription errors.

How do we track remediation after audit closes?

Findings remain linked to remediation actions in Fig. Quarterly status updates are pushed to team leads and managers. Remediation completion is tracked through to verification and closure.

How does Fig reduce auditor time on-site?

Evidence is pre-structured by control, with statistical sampling and test results already documented. Auditors navigate a portal instead of requesting files by email. Most clients report 40-60% reduction in auditor on-site time.

Can we run internal audits through Fig as well as external ones?

Yes. Internal and external audits are managed through the same workflow. Internal audits can use the same evidence library and control mappings. Findings from internal audits feed into remediation tracking so issues are resolved before external auditors arrive.

What if the auditor requests evidence that is not already in Fig?

You can upload ad-hoc evidence directly into the audit workspace and link it to the relevant control. Fig timestamps the upload and records who provided it. Over time, these manual uploads highlight gaps in your automated evidence collection.
