Audit Office Intranet Solution Case Study | Elcom

See how We've transformed

The Audit Office acts as an accountability mechanism for the government, focusing on financial audits, performance audits, compliance reviews and protected disclosures.

The Challenge

The Audit Office of NSW sought to better inform and connect its audit staff who are geographically dispersed on projects across several business teams. The Audit Office wanted to be able to communicate with its staff in a timely and efficient manner while promoting collaboration within and across business teams.
