Gartner’s latest report assesses the current global auditing market landscape

Ideagen has been recognised as a ‘Representative Vendor’ by Gartner in its latest Market Guide for Audit Management Solutions.

The report assesses the global and current audit software market with Ideagen’s Pentana Audit and MKInsight being evaluated.

Audit management solutions provide core internal audit operation management capabilities including audit-related risk assessments and finding remediation functions. Solutions in this market facilitate audit planning, audit scoping, internal audit performance management and audit committee reporting.

Ideagen strengthened its audit portfolio and market position when it acquired Morgan Kai Group Ltd in September, 2018, adding its MKInsight solution.

Gordon McKeown (pictured above), Ideagen’s Head of Product, said: “We are delighted to be included once again as a Representative Vendors in Gartner’s guide.

“We believe, that to be recognised by such a well-respected organisation in the form of Gartner, is another milestone for the business and is yet another fantastic piece of recognition for Ideagen and our products.

“Audit teams in regulated businesses need visibility of current and emerging risks in all areas of the organisation in order to manage these risks, ensure compliance and prevent failures. At the same time, they should be connecting business strategy to operational performance and facilitating stakeholder participation.

“Alongside Pentana Audit, the acquisition of Morgan Kai and its MKInsight software application strengthens our audit business and also enhances the expertise we can offer the global auditing landscape.”

Pentana Audit is trusted and used by over 450 organisations worldwide including Heineken, BBVA, PwC, BT, Shell, Sky and BDO.

MKInsight is used across a number of highly regulated vertical markets including Public Sector, Banking and Finance, Engineering, Healthcare and Energy. Clients include UK National Audit, Investec, the New York Stock Exchange, Shell, Bombardier and Blue Shield.
