The following changes are aimed for 2014:
Integration of control performance and control testing in the tool.
Only upload the requested samples in the tool.
BPO-IC person will “validate” the assessment of the control performer. This will be done in the same workflow. Thus the control performance as well as the test is all in one place – you will not need to search the evidence, before you test it, it will be here.
Controls rejected by BPO-IC’s will revert back to the control performer for re-work.
Creating remediation plans will be enforced by the tool.
Move to a quarterly heartbeat for all testing. All daily, weekly and monthly controls will become quarterly tasks in the tool.
