Major Australian Insurer

Co-sourced Internal Audit Technology and Projects

Amstelveen has been supplementing technology and project assurance services for the Internal Audit department of a major Australian insurer for the past 9 years. Through this co-sourced arrangement, we have planned and executed multiple program and technology assurance reviews across the client’s complex technology and project landscape. This has included reviews across the client’s major core insurance platform consolidation and simplification program, data migrations and actuarial data processes, and the client’s broader technology application and infrastructure environment. We have also conducted reviews of enterprise-wide program governance and portfolio management processes. This has included reviews within the client’s EPMO in Australia and New Zealand. These reviews have often been resourced with combined teams to optimise review outcomes and knowledge transfer.
